Title: Parameter Estimation in the Presence of Coarsened Data

Abstract:

A random sample in the presence of coarsened observations is used for estimating a vector of population parameters. A method proposed in this paper combines sample estimates obtained from different subsamples of an original sample and produces a vector of estimators accumulating the information from all sample estimates. This estimator is asymptotically efficient and can be effectively applied to nonignorable coarsening. The estimation based on this approach was applied to an artificial example and a real dataset. The results are provided.
