statistical sampling
51Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem — Fig.1: Hypothetical spectrum of a bandlimited signal as a function of frequency The Nyquist–Shannon sampling theorem, after Harry Nyquist and Claude Shannon, is a fundamental result in the field of information theory, in particular… …
52Non-Sampling Error — A statistical error caused by human error to which a specific statistical analysis is exposed. These errors can include, but are not limited to, data entry errors, biased questions in a questionnaire, biased processing/decision making,… …
53Non-sampling error — In statistics, non sampling error is a catch all term for the deviations from the true value that are not a function of the sample chosen, including various systematic errors and any random errors that are not due to sampling.[1] Non sampling… …
54Acceptance Sampling — A statistical measure used in quality control. A company cannot test every one of its products due to either ruining the products, or the volume of products being too large. Acceptance sampling solves this by testing a sample of product for… …
55Cluster sampling — is a sampling technique used when natural groupings are evident in a statistical population. It is often used in marketing research. In this technique, the total population is divided into these groups (or clusters) and a sample of the groups is… …
56Importance sampling — In statistics, importance sampling is a general technique for estimating the properties of a particular distribution, while only having samples generated from a different distribution rather than the distribution of interest. Depending on the… …
57Nested sampling algorithm — The nested sampling algorithm is a computational approach to the problem of comparing models in Bayesian statistics, developed in 2004 by physicist John Skilling.[1] Contents 1 Background 2 Applications 3 …
58Systematic sampling — is a statistical method involving the selection of every k th element from a sampling frame, where k , the sampling interval, is calculated as:::: k = population size ( N ) / sample size ( n )Using this procedure each element in the population… …
59Modified active gas sampling — (MAGS) is an environmental engineering assessment technique which rapidly detects unsaturated soil source areas impacted by volatile organic compounds. The technique was developed by HSA Engineers Scientists in Fort Myers, Florida in 2002, led by …
60Survey sampling — In statistics, survey sampling is random selection of a sample from a finite population. It is an important part of planning statistical research and design of experiments. Sophisticated sampling techniques that are both economical and… …
