A visual representation of the sampling process. In statistics, quality assurance, and survey methodology, sampling is the selection of a subset or a statistical sample (termed sample for short) of individuals from within a statistical population to estimate characteristics of the whole population.
Sugiyono on a 1966 Indonesia stamp Mangunwiyoto's grave Raden Sugiyono Mangunwiyoto [ 1 ] (12 August 1926 – 1 October 1965) was one of 10 revolutionary heroes of Indonesia . He was kidnapped and killed by members of the 30 September Movement .
Proportionate allocation uses a sampling fraction in each of the strata that are proportional to that of the total population. For instance, if the population consists of n total individuals, m of which are male and f female (and where m + f = n), then the relative size of the two samples (x 1 = m/n males, x 2 = f/n females) should reflect this proportion.
The table shown on the right can be used in a two-sample t-test to estimate the sample sizes of an experimental group and a control group that are of equal size, that is, the total number of individuals in the trial is twice that of the number given, and the desired significance level is 0.05. [4]
In sampling theory, the sampling fraction is the ratio of sample size to population size or, in the context of stratified sampling, the ratio of the sample size to the size of the stratum. [1]
Sampling bias is usually classified as a subtype of selection bias, [7] sometimes specifically termed sample selection bias, [8] [9] [10] but some classify it as a separate type of bias. [11]
Importance sampling is a variance reduction technique that can be used in the Monte Carlo method.The idea behind importance sampling is that certain values of the input random variables in a simulation have more impact on the parameter being estimated than others.
In probability theory, the sample space (also called sample description space, [1] possibility space, [2] or outcome space [3]) of an experiment or random trial is the set of all possible outcomes or results of that experiment. [4]
