Fig. 4 Alternative estimators of job requirements.
Alternative estimators of treatment effect are also possible; for example, one may wish to adjust the treatment effect for baseline covariates.
We therefore propose an alternative estimator of the evolutionary distance between two sequences in terms of the number N of spaced-word matches between them.
In addition, we developed an alternative estimator of the number of variants by directly fitting a suitable distribution to the observed z-statistics.
So, we just use (24) as an alternative estimator of predictive accuracy.
The quantity H m 5 2 (24) provides an alternative estimator of heritability when the RR-BLUP of the genetic variance (g) is considered as the "phenotype".
GenAlEx offers the calculation of a series of Shannon indices, including the mutual information index SHUA, an alternative estimator of population structure.
Yang and Xie [ 15] propose an alternative estimator of the Weibull shape parameter based on a modified profile likelihood applied to the IPD.
However, this raises the issue of how to incorporate individual fixed effects in an ordered logit model; the choice between suggested alternative estimators is not straightforward and raises further difficulties relating to the clustering of standard errors in panel data.
The table reports the average absolute (columns 1 and 3) and percentage (columns 2 and 4) difference between these alternative estimators across all the country-occupation cells.
