On Successive Sampling and Fixed Inclusion Probabilities
In the method of successive sampling, a sample of n distinct units is drawn from a population of N units one at a time. Each unit i is drawn with a fixed selection probability pi and any repeated units are ignored. When the pi are proportional to a given size measure, this is called probability proportional to size without replacement (PPSWOR). The first order inclusion probabilities πi of each...
متن کاملA sampling-based approach for probabilistic design with random fields
An original technique to incorporate random fields non-intrusively in probabilistic design is presented. The approach is based on the extraction of the main features of a random field using a limited number of experimental observations (snapshots). An approximation of the random field is obtained using proper orthogonal decomposition (POD). For a given failure criterion, an explicit limit state...
متن کاملSize constrained unequal probability sampling with a non-integer sum of inclusion probabilities
More than 50 methods have been developed to draw unequal probability samples with fixed sample size. All these methods require the sum of the inclusion probabilities to be an integer number. There are cases, however, where the sum of desired inclusion probabilities is not an integer. Then, classical algorithms for drawing samples cannot be directly applied. We present two methods to overcome th...
متن کاملApplication of triangulation approach in requirements engineering process: A study in analysis and design of the pediatrics epilepsy information system
Introduction: Requirements Engineering process is a crucial phase in software development. In order to achieve a successful design of health information systems (HISs), applying the best methodologies is essential. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to design pediatrics Epilepsy Information System (EPIS) as well as the use of triangulation approach in elicitation and validation of epil...
متن کاملUnbiased sampling of network ensembles
Sampling random graphs with given properties is a key step in the analysis of networks, as random ensembles represent basic null models required to identify patterns such as communities and motifs. A key requirement is that the sampling process is unbiased and efficient. The main approaches are microcanonical, i.e. they sample graphs that exactly match the enforced constraints. Unfortunately, w...
