A method of sample selection for household telephone interviewing via random digit dialing is developed which significantly reduces the cost of such surveys as compared to dialing numbers completely ...

A common strategy of variance estimation for systematic sampling is to assume that the population order had been randomized prior to sampling and to estimate variance under this randomized population ...

The first video in our "Methods 101" series is about random sampling, a concept that undergirds all probability-based survey research. Here's how it works.

A research team has developed a novel direct sampling method based on deep generative models. Their method enables efficient ...

The new system greatly outperformed previous random sampling methods in capturing the target behavior and the researchers were able to observe previously unreported foraging behaviors in gulls.

What is the difference between representative samples and random samples, and how are they are used to reduce sampling bias?

To create their random number, the researcher used a technique called random circuit sampling. It essentially leans on quantum computing (which operates under different rules than classical computing ...
