Exact Likelihood Inference for Snowball-Sampled Erdős-Rényi Networks
Nurzhan Sapargali, Sergio Buttazzo, G\''oran Kauermann
Network data obtained through link-tracing designs, such as snowball sampling, are collected through a mechanism that depends on the very structure the analysis seeks to estimate.…

Maximum Likelihood Estimation for Network Models with Latent Geometry under Snowball Sampling
Nurzhan Sapargali, Sergio Buttazzo, Göran Kauermann +1
Snowball sampling is a widely used design for collecting network data from large or hard-to-reach populations, yet naive inference that ignores the sampling mechanism produces syst…
