A Comparison of Aggregate and Proportional Loss Function 4 in Adjustment Using Artificial Populations
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aggregate loss functions are loss functions for counts of areas where the count itself is of interest. Proportional loss functions are loss functions for counts of areas where the count as a proportion of a total is of interest. To date, much of the work on adjustment has concentrated on aggregate loss functions. A question is whether this effort will necessarily produce estimated counts whi.ch provide a reduction with respect to the census for I proportional loss functions. The importance of this question lies in the uses of the census counts for reapportionment of the House of Representatives and fund allocation, for which a relative loss function is natural.

Introduction: The self-repair process cannot occur in the skin lesions, therefore, skin replacements are used due to the formation of a scar, which resulted in the complete loss of skin. Artificial skin should have the same specifications as the natural skin. The finite element methods were used in this study to evaluate the biomechanichal properties of natural and artificial skins. Materials ...
