Abstract:

Randy Sitter has made fundamental contributions to resampling methods in sample surveys. In particular, he has developed ingenious methods for variance estimation under stratified multistage cluster sampling designs using balanced repeated replication and bootstrap sampling. In this talk, I will highlight some of Randy's major contributions to this important topic in survey sampling.
