Abstract:

Density estimation is an important topic in survey sampling since it summarizes all relevant information about the population of interest. However, the assumption of independent and identically distributed samples are violated when data are sampled from a finite population using a complex sampling design. In this paper, we propose an orthogonal series density estimation (OSDE) for complex surveys. The proposed estimator is design-unbiased and asymptotically design-consistent. The asymptotic normality is studied under both design and combined spaces. We also show the lower bound of minimax mean integrated squared error (MISE) for the proposed estimator. Data driven estimators are proposed and studied via both simulation and real data analysis.
