摘要:Land segments form the sampling frame in a variety of sampling problems. In this article, the class of linear homogeneous estimators is investigated for the area sampling frame used in agricultural surveys. It is shown that the commonly used estimators belong to this class, and results are obtained comparing these estimators with other estimators in the class. In previous work in agriculture surveys where the problem is to estimate the population total using an area sampling frame, the estimat...

摘要:We describe a methodology for estimating the accuracy of dual systems estimates (DSE's) of population, census estimates of population, and estimates of undercount in the census. The DSE's are based on the census and a post-enumeration survey (PES). We apply the methodology to the 1988 dress rehearsal census of St. Louis and east-central Missouri and we discuss its applicability to the 1990 census and PES. The methodology is based on decompositions of the total (or net) error into components, s...

摘要:The fields of molecular genetics and medicine are accumulating DNA and protein sequence data at an accelerating rate. Discovering and interpreting sequence patterns can contribute to understanding molecular mechanisms and evolutionary processes. This article considers two types of statistical problems in these contexts: (1) identifying anomalies in the distribution of a specified biochemical marker along a DNA string; in particular, new statistical methods are set forth by which to assess exce...

摘要:Understanding the stochastic behavior of beta is fundamental to portfolio risk management. We evaluate the time series properties of beta for oil industry stocks, machinery industry stocks, and a random sample of 100 stocks. Daily returns for stocks in each of these industries and the random sample are obtained from the Center for Research in Security Prices tapes for the period July 1962 through December 1986 and are grouped into 98 quarter-year, and also 49 half-year, nonoverlapping time int...

摘要:We present a procedure for computing significance levels from data sets whose missing values have been multiply imputed data. This procedure uses moment-based statistics, m greater-than-or-equal-to 3 repeated imputations, and an F reference distribution. When m = infinity, we show first that our procedure is essentially the same as the ideal procedure in cases of practical importance and, second, that its deviations from the ideal are basically a function of the coefficient of variation of the...

摘要:In this article I review the modeling of capture, recapture, and removal statistics for the purpose of estimating demographic parameters of fish and wildlife populations. Topics considered include capture-recapture models, band or tag return models, removal and catch per unit effort models, selective removal or change-in-ratio models, radio-tagging survival models, and nest survival models. The purpose is to present important concepts in a general manner for the benefit of a wide audience of s...
