Pseudo Empirical Likelihood Inference for Non-Probability Survey Samples
In this paper, the authors first provide an overview of two major developments on complex survey data analysis: the empirical likelihood methods and statistical inference with non-probability survey samples, and highlight the important research contributions to the field of survey sampling in general and the two topics in particular by Canadian survey statisticians. The authors then propose new inferential procedures on analyzing non-probability survey samples through the pseudo empirical likel…

Russland will Europa zu einem Rüstungswettlauf zwingen. Das destabilisiert die Zivilgesellschaft und schwächt Europa.
Rechtsradikale Freunde Russlands kommen an die Macht und Putin kann Europa schlucken.
Allerdings: Die Gefahr, dass die europäischen Zivilgesellschaften ihm im Hals stecken bleiben, ist ziemlich gross.
Wenn sich Putin da nur nicht verrechnet.

Wide Area VISTA Extragalactic Survey (WAVES): Selection of targets for the Wide survey using decision-tree classification
The Wide-Area VISTA Extragalactic Survey (WAVES) on the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST) includes two flux-limited subsurveys with very high (95\%) completeness requirements: Wide over $\sim\!1200$ deg$^2$ and Deep over $\sim\!65$ deg$^2$. Both are $Z$-band selected, respectively as $Z<21.1$ and $Z<21.25$ mag, and additionally redshift-limited, while the true redshifts are not known a priori but will be only measured by 4MOST. Here, we present a classification-based method t…
