Title: Range-Restricted Calibration Weights and Related Inference Problems
Author(s): Wilson Lu* and Changbao Wu
Companies: Acadia University and University of Waterloo
Keywords: calibration weights
Abstract:

This talk consists of two parts. We first provide an overview on methods for obtaining range-restricted calibration weights, with main focus on efficiency and computational simplicity. We then explore several issues with design-based inferences using range-restricted calibration weights, including variance estimation for descriptive population parameters, survey weighted estimating equations, and the pseudo empirical likelihood based inferences.


Authors who are presenting talks have a * after their name.
