Asymptotic theory and inference of predictive mean matching imputation using a superpopulation model framework

SCANDINAVIAN JOURNAL OF STATISTICS, 47(3), 839–861.

By: S. Yang n & J. Kim*

author keywords: hot deck imputation; Jackknife variance estimation; martingale central limit theorem; missing at random

Construction, Properties, and Analysis of Group-Orthogonal Supersaturated Designs

TECHNOMETRICS, 62(3), 403–414.

author keywords: E(s2)-optimality; UE(s(2))-optimality; Group screening designs; Hadamard matrices; Model selection
TL;DR: A new method for constructing supersaturated designs that is based on the Kronecker product of two carefully chosen matrices is proposed, which leads to a partitioning of the factors of the design such that the factors within a group are correlated to the others within the same group, but are orthogonal to any factor in any other group.

AGRICULTURAL AND FOREST ENTOMOLOGY, 22(1), 30–40.

author keywords: Beetle; differential equation; diffusion; dispersal; habitat heterogeneity
