Efficient estimation of population mean in the presence of non-response and measurement error

Tiwari, Kuldeep Kumar; Sharma, Vishwantra - In: Statistics in transition : an international journal of … 24 (2023) 3, pp. 95-116

In real-world surveys, non-response and measurement errors are common, therefore studying them together seems rational. Some population mean estimators are modified and studied in the presence of non-response and measurement errors. Bias and mean squared error expressions are derived under...

Best Median Unbiased Estimation in Linear Regression with Bounded Asymmetric Loss Functions

Andrews, Donald W.K.; Phillips, Peter C.B. - Cowles Foundation for Research in Economics, Yale University - 1986

We first show that the Generalized Least Squares estimator is the best median unbiased estimator of the regression parameters for quite general loss functions, when the parameter space is unrestricted. Of note is the fact that this result holds without moment restrictions. Thus, the errors may...

Reference priors for discrete graphical models

Consonni, Guido; Leucari, Valentina - 2005

The combination of graphical models and reference analysis represents a powerful tool for Bayesian inference in highly multivariate settings. It is typically difficult to derive reference priors in complex problems. In this paper we present a suitable mixed parameterisation for a discrete...

A new class of counting distributions embedded in the Lee-Carter model for mortality projections : a Bayesian approach

Awad, Yaser; Bar-Lev, Shaul K.; Makov, Udi - In: Risks : open access journal 10 (2022) 6, pp. 1-17

The Lee-Carter model, the dominant mortality projection modeling in the literature, was criticized for its homoscedastic error assumption. This was corrected in extensions to the model based on the assumption that the number of deaths follows Poisson or negative binomial distributions. We...

Deceleration: Revealed Preference in Society and Win-Win-Strategy for Sustainable Management

Günther, Edeltraud; Lehmann-Waffenschmidt, Marco - 2007

continual acceleration may well be counter-productive and lead to an "acceleration paradox" – more of it not always is better …. Three levels of the emergence and spread of the acceleration phenomenon can be distinguished: the macroeconomic, the … microeconomic, and the motivational and behavioural level, all of them bearing, however, the danger of an "acceleration trap …

Kann Offenheit geplant werden? Ein Essay über die zeitliche Dimension in der räumlichen Planung

Siegmund, Yvonne - In: Räumliche Transformation: Prozesse, Konzepte, …, (pp. 165-176). 2019

Stadtplanungsprozesse bewegen sich im Wirkungsverhältnis sich ständig ändernder globaler, regionaler und lokaler Dynamiken. Prozesse daher aus der zeitlichen Perspektive zu betrachten, kann ein Schlüssel zum Verständnis dieser komplexen Sinnzusammenhänge sein. Obgleich in der...

Value function iteration as a solution method for the Ramsey model

Heer, Burkhard; Maußner, Alfred - 2008

Value function iteration is one of the standard tools for the solution of the Ramsey model. We compare six different ways of value function iteration with regard to speed and precision. We find that value function iteration with cubic spline interpolation between grid points dominates the other...
