Empirical Bayes Estimation of Finite Population Means from Complex Surveys
复杂调查中有限总体均值的经验贝叶斯估计
Estimation of finite population means is considered when samples are collected using a stratified sampling design. Finite populations for different strata are assumed to be realizations from different superpopulations. The true means of the observations lie on a regression surface with random intercepts for different strata. The true sampling variances are also different and random for different strata. The strata are connected through two common prior distributions, one for…
