Item Count Technique

Indirect methods of questioning are of utmost importance when dealing with sensitive questions. This paper refers to the new indirect method introduced by Tian et al. (2014) and examines the optimal allocation of the sample to control and treatment groups. If determining the optimal allocation is based on the variance formula for the method of moments (difference in means) estimator of the sensitive proportion, the solution is quite straightforward and was given in Tian et al. (2014). However, maximum likelihood (ML) estimation is known from much better properties, therefore determining the optimal allocation based on ML estimators has more practical importance. This problem is nontrivial because in the Poisson item count technique the study sensitive variable is a latent one and is not directly observable. Thus ML estimation is carried out by using the expectation‑maximisation (EM) algorithm and therefore an explicit analytical formula for the variance of the ML estimator of the sensitive proportion is not obtained. To determine the optimal allocation of the sample based on ML estimation, comprehensive Monte Carlo simulations and the EM algorithm have been employed.

The Impact

EM algorithm is a common method to solve mixed model parameters in statistical classification of remote sensing image. The EM algorithm based on fuzzification is presented in this paper to use a fuzzy set to represent each training sample. Via the weighted degree of membership, different samples will be of different effect during iteration to decrease the impact of noise on parameter learning and to increase the convergence rate of algorithm. The function and accuracy of classification of image data can be completed preferably.

Data Estimation

Missing data often occur in agriculture and animal husbandry experiment. The missing data in experimental design makes the information that we get less complete. In this research, the missing data was estimated with Yates method and Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm. The basic concept of the Yates method is to minimize sum square error (JKG), meanwhile the basic concept of the EM algorithm is to maximize the likelihood function. This research applied Balanced Lattice Design with 9 treatments, 4 replications and 3 group of each repetition. Missing data estimation results showed that the Yates method was better used for two of missing data in the position on a treatment, a column and random, meanwhile the EM algorithm was better used to estimate one of missing data and two of missing data in the position of a group and a replication. The comparison of the result JKG of ANOVA showed that JKG of incomplete data larger than JKG of incomplete data that has been added with estimator of data. This suggest  thatwe need to estimate the missing data.
