Bayesian Estimation of a Finite Population Total using Auxiliary Information in the Presence of Nonresponse
本文提出一种贝叶斯方法，在样本调查中当存在无回答时估计有限总体总量，利用与特征和回答概率相关的辅助信息，并通过简单例子说明其有效性。
Abstract This article presents a Bayesian approach to estimation, in a sample survey setting, of a finite population total for some characteristic of interest when nonresponse is present. A general model is described for situations where a Hansen-Hurwitz sampling plan is used. The model makes use of concomitant information that is related both to the characteristic of interest and to the probability of response. A simple example is included to illustrate the usefulness of the approach. Key Words: Survey samplingNonresponseBayesian inferenceSuperpopulation models
