In some cases model-based and model-assisted inferences canlead to very different estimators. These two paradigms are notso different if we search for an optimal strategy rather thanjust an optimal estimator, a strategy being a pair composedof a sampling design and an estimator. We show that, under alinear model, the optimal model-assisted strategy consists ofa balanced sampling design with inclusion probabilities thatare proportional to the standard deviations of the errors ofthe model and the Horvitz–Thompson estimator. If the heteroscedasticityof the model is 'fully explainable by the auxiliary variables,then this strategy is also optimal in a model-based sense. Moreover,under balanced sampling and with inclusion probabilities thatare proportional to the standard deviation of the model, thebest linear unbiased estimator and the Horvitz–Thompsonestimator are equal. Finally, it is possible to construct asingle estimator for both the design and model variance. Theinference can thus be valid under the sampling design and underthe model. 相似文献

For estimating the mean of a finite population using information on an auxiliary variable, a class of estimators which also uses the value of the correlation coefficient between the two variables which is assumed known, is defined. Expression for its asymptotic mean squared error and its minimum value is obtained. An expression by which the minimum mean squared error of this class is smaller than those which use only the sample mean and the sample variance of the auxiliary variable is obtained. A similar class of estimators is considered for the estimation of the population variance. The gain in efficiency is illustrated for six populations considered in literature. 相似文献

In practice, a disease process might involve three ordinal diagnostic stages: the normal healthy stage, the early stage of the disease, and the stage of full development of the disease. Early detection is critical for some diseases since it often means an optimal time window for therapeutic treatments of the diseases. In this study, we propose a new influence function-based empirical likelihood method and Bayesian empirical likelihood methods to construct confidence/credible intervals for the sensitivity of a test to patients in the early diseased stage given a specificity and a sensitivity of the test to patients in the fully diseased stage. Numerical studies are performed to compare the finite sample performances of the proposed approaches with existing methods. The proposed methods are shown to outperform existing methods in terms of coverage probability. A real dataset from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ANDI) is used to illustrate the proposed methods. 相似文献
