Sequential Unequal Probability Sampling For Stream Population
Methodology
2021-11-17 v1
Abstract
A new unequal probability sampling method is proposed. This method is sequential. The decision to select or not each unit is made based on the order in which the units appear. A variant of this method allows selecting a sample from a stream. At each step, the decision to take the units successively according to the order of appearance in the stream is made. This method involves using a sliding window that is as small as possible. The method also allows the sample to be spread and even the level of spreading to be adjusted.
