为了估计种群的大小，提出了一种替代经典捕获-标记-再捕获模型的植物捕获方法。已知的或有标记的个体与种群的其余部分无法区分，然后努力从增加的种群中捕获成员。给出了最大似然估计量和置信区域，以及种群大小作为植物数量函数的置信区间的期望长度。开发了一种比较植物捕获与捕获-再捕获的成本效率的方法。提出了对无家可归者进行统计的申请。
To estimate the size of a population a plant-capture method, an alternative to the classic capture-mark-recapture model, is presented. Known or marked individuals otherwise indistinguishable from the remainder of the population are planted followed by an effort to capture members from the augmented population. Maximum likelihood estimators and a confidence region together with the expected length of the confidence interval for the size of the population as a function of the number of plants are given. A methodology for comparing the cost efficiency of plant-capture to capture-recapture is developed. An application to counting the homeless is given.
