  • Information Criterion for Nonparametric Model-Assisted Survey Estimators

    Creator:
    James, Addison
    Abstract:
    Nonparametric model-assisted estimators have been proposed to improve estimates of finite population parameters. More efficient estimators are obtained when the parametric model is misspecified due to the flexibility of nonparametric models. In this dissertation, we derive information criteria to select appropriate auxiliary variables to use in an additive model-assisted method....
