This technique has long been at the forefront of quantitative ecology, epidemiology and the social sciences for estimating the size of populations that are difficult to count directly. By using ...

The technique of simulation on an electronic computer has been used to examine the behaviour of the methods of Fisher & Ford (1947), Jolly (1965) and Manly & Parr (1968) in estimating the parameters ...

Spatial capture–recapture (SCR) is a relatively recent development in ecological statistics that provides a spatial context for estimating abundance and space use patterns, and improves inference ...

The Targeted Minimum Loss-based Estimation proved the most accurate capture-recapture model in estimating hidden populations of patients with HIV. A capture-recapture model, named the Targeted Minimum ...

During her internship last summer with the Licking County Coalition for Housing in Ohio, McGinnis—a math and economics major—was asked to help estimate the population of homeless young people in the ...

Capture-recapture methods are now widely used for quantifying abundance and movements of elasmobranchs. This method requires that individuals in the population are uniquely identifiable and has been ...
