survey sampling, weights can be applied to the data to adjust for the sample design, particularly in stratified sampling. Results from probability theory...

Nonprobability sampling is a form of sampling that does not utilise random sampling techniques where the probability of getting any particular sample may be calculated...

In statistics, a sampling distribution or finite-sample distribution is the probability distribution of a given random-sample-based statistic. If an arbitrarily...

In survey methodology, probability-proportional-to-size (pps) sampling is a sampling process where each element of the population (of size N) has some...

description of a random phenomenon in terms of its sample space and the probabilities of events (subsets of the sample space). For instance, if X is used to denote...

the sampling probability is known, from which the sampling population is drawn from the target population, then the inverse of this probability is used...

statistics, Gibbs sampling or a Gibbs sampler is a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm for sampling from a specified multivariate probability distribution...

small sample from a large population, sampling without replacement is approximately the same as sampling with replacement, since the probability of choosing...

obtaining a sequence of random samples from a probability distribution from which direct sampling is difficult. New samples are added to the sequence in...

cluster sampling we can use a two stage sampling in which we sample each cluster (which may be of different sizes) with equal probability, and then sample from...

In probability theory, the sample space (also called sample description space, possibility space, or outcome space) of an experiment or random trial is...

sampling formula describes the probabilities associated with counts of how many different alleles are observed a given number of times in the sample....

sampling (also known as grab sampling, accidental sampling, or opportunity sampling) is a type of non-probability sampling that involves the sample being...

finite population sampling, a sampling design specifies for every possible sample its probability of being drawn. Mathematically, a sampling design is denoted...

sampling is also related to umbrella sampling in computational physics. Depending on the application, the term may refer to the process of sampling from...

Top-p sampling avoids this by setting a threshold p and then restricting the sampling to the set of most probable tokens with cumulative probability less...

Bernoulli sampling is therefore a special case of Poisson sampling. In Poisson sampling each element of the population may have a different probability of being...
