Optimum Allocation in Stratified Random Network Sampling for Estimating the Prevalence of Attributes in Rare Populations
稀有人群二元属性估计中分层随机网络抽样的最优配置
This work considers estimation of dichotomous characteristics of rare populations by sample survey. In particular, we investigate optimum allocation when a network sampling rule (also called multiplicity rule) is used to link members of the rare population to enumeration units and when the enumeration units are chosen by stratified random sampling. For this situation, formulas are derived for optimum allocation under the restriction that an enumeration unit is linked to at…
