Abstract:
|
Deville and Sarndall (1992, Section 4) considered calibration on the known counts (cell counts or marginal counts) of a frequency table in any number of dimensions (generalized raking procedure). In this paper, we show that a similar procedure can be applied to the case of partly known overlapping counts. As an example we consider calibration of area-month-year unemployment estimates to month-year totals from a time series model of State estimates from the Current Population Survey and area-year totals from the American Community Survey.
