The idea of coherence of estimates is crucial in the production process of the national institutes of statistics. In this paper we consider the idea of internal and external coherence. The first concept is related to results of a single survey while the second is related to results of different surveys. It will be shown how Bayesian networks can be usefully exploited in order to define general estimators in a finite population context.

Abstract
The idea of coherence of estimates is crucial in the production process of the national institutes of statistics. In this paper we consider the idea of internal and external coherence. The first concept is related to results of a single survey while the second is related to results of different surveys. It will be shown how Bayesian networks can be usefully exploited in order to define general estimators in a finite population context.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
