Research on Inference of Candidate Database Web Surveys Based on Superpopulation Pseudo Design and the Combined Sample

How to solve the inference problem of candidate database web surveys is an urgent problem to be solved in the development of web survey. In order to solve this problem, the inference method of non-probability sampling based on superpopulation pseudo design and the combined sample is proposed. A superpopulation model is firstly built up to construct pseudo weights for a survey sample of the web candidate database. The estimator of the population mean is then computed according to the combined sample composed of the survey sample of the web candidate database and a probability sample. The variance estimator of the population mean estimator is lastly derived according to the variance estimation theory of the superpopulation model. The Bootstrap and Jackknife methods are also used to compute the variance estimator. And all these variance estimation methods are compared. The research results show that the population mean estimator based on superpopulation pseudo design and the combined sample is better, and has higher efficiency than the estimator only using the probability sample and the weighted estimator only using the survey sample of the web candidate database. The variance estimator computed by using the VM1, VM2 and VM3 method are relatively better.

Numerical approximation of conditional asymptotic variances using Monte Carlo simulation

We consider in this paper the use of Monte Carlo simulation to numerically approximate the asymptotic variance of an estimator of a population parameter. When the variance of an estimator does not exist in finite samples, the variance of its limiting distribution is often used for inferences. However, in this case, the numerical approximation of asymptotic variances is less straightforward, unless their analytical derivation is mathematically tractable. The method proposed does not assume the existence of variance in finite samples. If finite sample variance does exist, it provides a more efficient approximation than the one based on the convergence of finite sample variances. Furthermore, the results obtained will be potentially useful in evaluating and comparing different estimation procedures based on their asymptotic variances for various types of distributions. The method is also applicable in surveys where the sample size required to achieve a fixed margin of error is based on the asymptotic variance of the estimator. The proposed method can be routinely applied and alleviates the complex theoretical treatment usually associated with the analytical derivation of the asymptotic variance of an estimator which is often managed on a case by case basis. This is particularly appealing in view of the advance of modern computing technology. The proposed numerical approximation is based on the variances of a certain truncated statistic for two selected sample sizes, using a Richardson extrapolation type formulation. The variances of the truncated statistic for the two sample sizes are computed based on Monte Carlo simulations, and the theory for optimizing the computing resources is also given. The accuracy of the proposed method is numerically demonstrated in a classical errors-in-variables model where analytical results are available for the purpose of comparisons.     

On-line Tracking of a Smooth Regression Function

We construct an on-line estimator with equidistant design for tracking a smooth function from Stone–Ibragimov–Khasminskii’s class. This estimator has the optimal convergence rate of risk to zero in sample size. The procedure for setting coefficients of the estimator is controlled by a single parameter and has a simple numerical solution. The off-line version of this estimator allows to eliminate a boundary layer. Simulation results are given. This work is partially supported by a fellowship from the Yitzhak and Chaya Weinstein Research Institute for Signal Processing at Tel Aviv University.     

Efficient computation of generalized median estimators

The generalized median (GM) estimator is a family of robust estimators that balances the competing demands of statistical efficiency and robustness. By choosing a kernel that is efficient for the parameter, the GM estimator gains robustness by computing the median of the kernel evaluated at all possible subsets from the sample. The GM estimator is often computationally infeasible because the number of subsets can be large for even modest sample sizes. Writing the estimator in terms of the quantile function facilitates an approximation using a sample of all possible subsets. While both sampling with and without replacement are feasible, sampling without replacement is preferred because of the reduction in variance from the sampling fraction. The proposed algorithm uses sequential sampling to compute an approximation within a user-chosen margin of error.     

A note on ratio and product type estimators

Summary The use of ratio and product estimators for the mean of a finite population is well known. This paper proposes transformed estimators obtained through parametric linear combination of the ratio, or product, and the usual unbiased estimator of the mean for any sample design. To the first degree of approximation, the proposed estimators have smaller mean square error than that of the ratio, product and the usual unbiased estimator, for suitable choice of the parameter. The superiority of the proposed estimators over others for small samples has been studied empirically.     

Asymptotic analysis for a stochastic semidefinite programming

Stochastic semidefinite programming (SSDP) is a new class of optimization problems with a wide variety of applications. In this article, asymptotic analysis results of sample average approximation estimator for SSDP are established. Asymptotic analysis result already existing for stochastic nonlinear programming is extended to SSDP, that is, the conditions ensuring the convergence in distribution of sample average approximation estimator for SSDP to a multivariate normal are obtained and the corresponding covariance matrix is described in a closed form.     

Panel‐based stratified cluster sampling and analysis for photovoltaic outdoor measurements

We study a stratified multisite cluster‐sampling panel time series approach in order to analyse and evaluate the quality and reliability of produced items, motivated by the problem to sample and analyse multisite outdoor measurements from photovoltaic systems. The specific stratified sampling in spatial clusters reduces sampling costs and allows for heterogeneity as well as for the analysis of spatial correlations due to defects and damages that tend to occur in clusters. The analysis is based on weighted least squares using data‐dependent weights. We show that this does not affect consistency and asymptotic normality of the least squares estimator under the proposed sampling design under general conditions. The estimation of the relevant variance–covariance matrices is discussed in detail for various models including nested designs and random effects. The strata corresponding to damages or manufacturers are modelled via a quality feature by means of a threshold approach. The analysis of outdoor electroluminescence images shows that spatial correlations and local clusters may arise in such photovoltaic data. Further, relevant statistics such as the mean pixel intensity cannot be assumed to follow a Gaussian law. We investigate the proposed inferential tools in detail by simulations in order to assess the influence of spatial cluster correlations and serial correlations on the test's size and power. ©2016 The Authors.
