Semiparametric adaptive estimation under informative sampling
信息性抽样下的半参数自适应估计
In probability sampling, sampling weights are often used to remove selection bias in the sample. The Horvitz–Thompson estimator is well known to be consistent and asymptotically normally distributed; however, it is not necessarily efficient. This study derives the semiparametric efficiency bound for various target parameters by considering the survey weights as random variables and consequently proposes two semiparametric estimators with working models on the survey weights.…
