The design of sampling from finite populations is receiving increased attention in the statistical literature. This article presents a critical review of past studies and new developments and outlines ...

The estimates of the parameters of the generalized geometric distribution are obtained by using ranked set sampling procedure. These estimates are compared with the ordered least squares estimates ...

A research team has developed a novel direct sampling method based on deep generative models. Their method enables efficient sampling of the Boltzmann distribution across a continuous temperature ...
