1. 11. Two Topics in Survey Methodology : Inference from Nonprobability Samples Using the Double Samples Setup

   Författare :Boris Lorenc; Daniel Thorburn; Lars Lyberg; Gösta Forsman; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; response process; establishment surveys; socially distributed cognition; response burden; measurement error; nonprobability samples; web surveys; double samples; propensity scores; model-based estimation; imputation; nonparametric imputation; weighting; Surveying; Lantmäteri;

   Sammanfattning : Modelling the response process in establishment surveys proceeded thus far by adding steps of operational character to the core cognitive steps of the individual cognitive model. Here (Paper 1) a larger unit of the cognitive analysis is posited: that part of the enterprise that is engaged in responding to a survey, consisting of one or more employees, the tools they use and the established practices of record keeping and survey responding.

3. 12. On Methods for Real Time Sampling and Distributions in Sampling

   Författare :Kadri Meister; Daniel Thorburn; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mathematical statistics; Finite population sampling; inferential issues; real time sampling; sequential sampling methods; negative sampling correlations; model-design-based inference; multivariate Bernoulli and multinomial designs; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis is composed of six papers, all dealing with the issue of sampling from a finite population. We consider two different topics: real time sampling and distributions in sampling. The main focus is on Papers A–C, where a somewhat special sampling situation referred to as real time sampling is studied. LÄS MER

4. 13. Multiple Kernel Imputation : A Locally Balanced Real Donor Method

   Författare :Nicklas Pettersson; Daniel Thorburn; Susanne Rässler; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian Bootstrap; Boundary Effects; External Information; Kernel estimation features; Local Balancing; Pólya Sampling; statistik; Statistics;

   Sammanfattning : We present an algorithm for imputation of incomplete datasets based on Bayesian exchangeability through Pólya sampling. Each (donee) unit with a missing value is imputed multiple times by observed (real) values on units from a donor pool. The donor pools are constructed using auxiliary variables. LÄS MER

5. 14. Some Contributions to Filtering, Modeling and Forecasting of Heteroscedastic Time Series

   Författare :Pär Stockhammar; Lars-Erik Öller; Daniel Thorburn; Agustin Maravall; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Heteroscedasticity; variance stabilizing filters; the mixed Normal - Asymmetric Laplace distribution; density forecasting; detrending filters; spectral analysis; the connection between financial data and economic growth; Statistics; Statistik; Statistics; statistik;

   Sammanfattning : Heteroscedasticity (or time-dependent volatility) in economic and financial time series has been recognized for decades. Still, heteroscedasticity is surprisingly often neglected by practitioners and researchers. This may lead to inefficient procedures. LÄS MER

7. 15. Model-based outlier adjustments for samples from skewed populations

   Författare :Olivia Ståhl; Dan Hedlin; Daniel Thorburn; Carl-Erik Särndal; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Survey sampling; outliers; value modification; winsorization; statistik; Statistics;

   Sammanfattning : Many populations encountered in practice are skewed to the right and contain a couple of values which are much larger than the bulk of the data. Using standard estimators to estimate for example the mean value of such a population is likely to result in a large variance. LÄS MER
