Statistical Matching in ‘Labour Force’ and ‘Time Use’ Surveys
Abstract. In the National Statistical Systems, some parts of the official statistics required for development planning and evidence base management are collected through sampling survey. Due to the high cost of sampling process, as well as nonresponses, it may not be possible to collect all of the expected variables in a survey.In order to obtain a comprehensive and complete source o...
متن کاملThe use of uncertainty to choose matching variables in statistical matching
Statistical matching (sometimes called data fusion, synthetical matching) aims at combining information available in distinct sample surveys referred to the same target population. Formally, let Y and Z be two random variables; statistical matching aims at estimating the joint (Y, Z) distribution function (e.g. a contingency table or a regression coefficient) or some of its parameters when: (i)...
متن کاملGeneralized and Customizable Sets in R
This introduction to the R package sets is a (slightly) modified version of Meyer and Hornik (2009a), published in the Journal of Statistical Software. We present data structures and algorithms for sets and some generalizations thereof (fuzzy sets, multisets, and fuzzy multisets) available for R through the sets package. Fuzzy (multi-)sets are based on dynamically bound fuzzy logic families. Fu...
متن کاملStatistical Matching of Discrete Data by Bayesian Networks
Statistical matching (also known as data fusion, data merging, or data integration) is the umbrella term for a collection of methods which serve to combine different data sources. The objective is to obtain joint information about variables which have not jointly been collected in one survey, but on two (or more) surveys with disjoint sets of observation units. Besides specific variables for th...

The Population Census is an important source of statistical information in most countries that is capable of producing reliable estimates of population characteristics for small geographic areas. One limitation of a census is that there are many population characteristics that cannot be collected due to respondent burden or cost. This means that statistical agencies have to conduct population b...
