UPtillepi2

Joint inclusion probabilties for Tille sampling


Description

Computes the joint (second-order) inclusion probabilities for Tillé sampling.

Usage

UPtillepi2(pik,eps=1e-6)

Arguments

pik

vector of the first-order inclusion probabilities.

eps

the control value, by default equal to 1e-6.

Value

Returns a NxN matrix of the following form: the main diagonal contains the first-order inclusion probabilities for each unit k in the population; elements (k,l) are the joint inclusion probabilities of units k and l, with k not equal to l. N is the population size. The value eps is used to control pik (pik>eps & pik < 1-eps).
