Estimating Population Size Via Sample Coverage for Closed Capture-Recapture Models
Abstract
A nonparametric estimation technique is proposed which uses the concept of sample coverage in order to estimate the size of a closed population for capture-recapture models where time, behavior, or heterogeneity may affect the capture probabilities. The technique also provides a unified approach to catch-effort models that allows for heterogeneity among removal probabilities. Real data examples are given for illustration. A simulation study investigates the behavior of the proposed procedure.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
