Overview

About

Analyzes and models data subject to sampling biases. Provides functions to estimate the density and cumulative distribution functions from biased samples of continuous distributions. Includes the estimators proposed by Bhattacharyya et al. (1988) doi:10.1080/03610928808829825 and Jones (1991) doi:10.2307/2337020 for density, and by Cox (2005, ISBN:052184939X) and Bose and Dutta (2022) doi:10.1007/s00184-021-00824-3 for distribution, with different bandwidth selectors. Also includes a real length-biased dataset on shrub width from Muttlak (1988) https://www.proquest.com/openview/3dd74592e623cdbcfa6176e85bd3d390/1?cbl=18750&diss=y&pq-origsite=gscholar.
