A point estimate is a value of a sample statistic that is used as a single estimate of a population parameter.
For 2004, the single estimate is $1.15.
Carbon estimates over all trees within a plot were aggregated into a single estimate of megagrams of carbon per hectare.
Therefore the median estimate serves as insurance against bad predictions if one was to use a single estimate.
To obtain PAEE the natural logarithm of each single estimate was weighed by the inverse of its variance.
"So we've brought everybody together to produce a single estimate and it turns out that estimate is two to three times more reliable than the last one".
This allows a treatment effect to be estimated for each treated county examined (with the estimated treatment effects often averaged across the county to report a single estimate).
To obtain the pooled adjusted effect estimate (PAEE), the natural logarithm of each single estimate was weighted by the inverse of its variance.
Fifthly, we combined effect size estimates of age groups into a single estimate and this may have concealed variability in levels of PA for younger versus older children.
This paper studies upper bounds on the position error for a single estimate of an unknown target node position based on distance estimates in wireless sensor networks.
