A step towards the integration of machine learning and classic model-based survey methods
迈向机器学习与经典模型型调查方法的融合
The usage of machine learning methods in traditional surveys including official statistics, is still very limited. Therefore, we propose a predictor supported by these algorithms, which can be used to predict any population or subpopulation characteristics. Machine learning methods have already been shown to be very powerful in identifying and modelling complex and nonlinear relationships between the variables, which means they have very good properties in case of strong…
