More than a century ago, Corrado Gini proposed his well‐known concentration index for
measuring the degree of inequality in the distribution of income and wealth. His index is still …

In surveys, the interest lies in estimating finite population parameters such as population
totals and means. In most surveys, some auxiliary information is available at the estimation …

In a finite population sampling survey, auxiliary information is commonly used to improve the
Horvitz–Thompson estimators and calibration has been extensively used by national …

When the study variable is functional and storage capacities are limited or transmission
costs are high, selecting with survey sampling techniques a small fraction of the …

This paper provides a rigorous treatment on design-based estimating equation inference
using complex survey data in the presence of nuisance functionals. The proposed design …

Model-assisted estimators have attracted a lot of attention in the last three decades. These
estimators attempt to make an efficient use of auxiliary information available at the …

When the study variables are functional and storage capacities are limited or transmission
costs are high, using survey techniques to select a portion of the observations of the …

Mean profiles are widely used as indicators of the electricity consumption habits of
customers. Currently, in Électricité De France (EDF), class load profiles are estimated using …

Statistical inference in the presence of nuisance functionals with complex survey data is an
important topic in social and economic studies. The Gini index, Lorenz curves, and quantile …

At the age of Big Data, it is now common to have to deal with very large datasets of
phenomena that evolve over time. When the aim is to estimate simple quantities such as the …
