The issue that brought it up was that sometimes statisticians like to work on asymptotic results. Variance estimation is discussed and the results from two Keywords. It covers classical likelihood, Bayesian, and permutation inference; an introduction to basic asymptotic distribution theory; and modern topics like M-estimation, the jackknife, and the bootstrap. An optimal propensity-score-adjusted estimator can be implemented using an augmented propensity model. Methods: Instead of resorting to simulation studies, we make use of asymptotic statistical theory to perform exact calculation of the efficiency of pooling relative to no pooling in the estimation of haplotype frequencies.

We discuss some asymptotic properties of propensity-score-adjusted estimators and derive optimal estimators based on a regression model for the finite population. There are several things people could mean when they say that complex models don't scale well. Ahmed's area of expertise includes statistical inference, multivariate analysis and asymptotic theory. Analysis of variance, estimation methods, statistical methods, survey sampling, undercoverage (statistics). However, if we're applying the test with a sample that's relatively small, we have to be careful because the actual sampling distribution of our statistic can be very different from its asymptotic distribution. Isn't it ironic that almost all known results in asymptotic statistics don't scale well with data?
