Some recent developments in small domain estimation 


When a sample is drawn from a large nite population but estimates are required for a large number of population subgroups (domains), direct estimators for some of these domains may be unreliable due to lack of domain sample data. This is the usual setup of small domain estimation, in which the aim is to obtain estimators with better properties than direct estimators using the data from other domains (indirect estimation) and extra information provided by auxiliary variables (through some kind of model). This presentation will revise the standard model-based small domain estimation methods and will review some recent developments in this eld. Some applications will be described.
