simex: Internal Function: Extrapolation for Simulation-Extrapolation...

In mhweber/spsurvey: Spatial Survey Design and Analysis

Description

This function executes the extrapolation step of the simulation extrapolation deconvolution method (Stefanski and Bay, 1996). The function can accomodate single-stage and two-stage samples.

Usage

simex(z, val, sigma, var.sigma, cluster.ind, cluster)

Arguments

z	Vector of the response value for each site.
val	Vector of the set of values at which the CDF is estimated.
sigma	Measurement error variance.
var.sigma	Variance of the estimated measurement error variance.
cluster.ind	Logical value that indicates whether the survey design utilizes two stages.
cluster	Vector of the stage one sampling unit (primary sampling unit or cluster) code for each site.

Value

Output is a list containing the following matrices:

g

values of the function g(.) evaluated at val for each value of z

dg

values of the derivative of the function g(.)
