If part of a population is hidden but two or more sources are available that each cover parts of this population, dual- or multiple-system(s) estimation can be applied to estimate this population. For this it is common to use the log-linear…

Given two populations from which independent binary observations are taken with parameters $p_1$ and $p_2$ respectively, estimators are proposed for the relative risk $p_1/p_2$, the odds ratio $p_1(1-p_2)/(p_2(1-p_1))$ and their logarithms.…

In sample survey, when data is collected, it is assumed that whatever is reported by respondent is correct. However, given the issues of prestige bias, personal respect, respondents self reported data often produces over-or-under estimated…

Modified estimators for the contribution rates of population eigenvalues are given under an elliptically contoured distribution. These estimators decrease the bias of the classical estimator, i.e. the sample contribution rates. The…
