The following question refers to the Horvitz-Thompson estimator. Which of the following statements is/are TRUE?
- Suppose that we are not aware of the Horvitz-Thompson estimator. So we estimate the mean degree of the network by taking the average of all node degrees collected with star sampling (i.e., the degrees of the seed nodes). We would still end up with the correct formula. [ Select ] [“True”, “False”]
- Suppose that we are not aware of the Horvitz-Thompson estimator. So we estimate the mean degree of the network by taking the average of all node degrees collected with traceroute sampling. We would still end up with the correct formula. [ Select ] [“True”, “False”]
- Suppose that we are not aware of the Horvitz-Thompson estimator. So we estimate the mean degree of the network by taking the average of all node degrees collected with induced subgraph sampling. We would still end up with the correct formula. [ Select ] [“True”, “False”]
- Suppose that we are not aware of the Horvitz-Thompson estimator. So we estimate the mean degree of the network by taking a random sample of nodes WITH replacement and then averaging their degrees. We would still end up with the correct formula. [ Select ] [“True”, “False”]
