Capture-Recapture Estimation with Samples of Size One Using Frequency Data
利用频数数据进行单次捕获样本的捕获—再捕获估计
One way in which a capture-recapture experiment can be designed is to count each capture occasion as a separate sample, and tally the number of individuals caught once, twice, and so on. This paper discusses the estimators currently used for this type of experiment, and suggests some new ones. Each of the estimators is categorized by its derivation. Following this, their properties are discussed, particularly their bias and variance, with the aim of choosing one or two of…
