摘要:
This paper presents the necessary and sufficient conditions for the optimality of an arbitrary linear predictor of the total of a finite population in survey sampling under a general linear model with a symmetric and positive-definite covariance matrix. Results of the paper extend and unify earlier work on robust estimation in survey sampling under more restrictive conditions.
