A general class of recapture models based on the conditional capture probabilities
1Department of Public Health and Infectious Diseases, Sapienza - University of Rome.
Abstract:
We propose an Mhotb model for population size estimation in capture-recapture studies. The tb part is based on equality constraints for the conditional capture probabilities, leading to an extremely rich model class. Observed and unobserved heterogeneity are dealt with by means of a logistic parameterization. In order to explore the model class, we introduce a penalized version of the likelihood. The conditional likelihood and penalized conditional likelihood are maximized by means of efficient EM algorithms. Simulations and two real data examples illustrate the approach.

The noncompartmental approach capitalizes on extensive sampling data, correlating the volume of distribution to systemic exposure and the administered dosage. This method enables...
Prediction Intervals
However, the point estimate is most likely not the exact value of the population parameter, but close to it. After calculating point estimates, we construct interval estimates, called confidence intervals or prediction intervals. This prediction interval comprises a range of values unlike the point estimate and is a better predictor of the observed sample value, y.
