Abstrakt

Techniki nierandomizowanych odpowiedzi to nowoczesne i stale rozwijające się metody przeznaczone do radzenia sobie z tematami drażliwymi, takimi jak oszustwa podatkowe, czarny rynek, korupcja itp. W artykule zaproponowano nową technikę nierandomizowanych odpowiedzi, którą można traktować jako uogólnienie znanego modelu krzyżowego. Przedstawiono metodykę nowego uogólnionego modelu krzyżowego oraz podano estymator największej wiarygodności dla nieznanej populacyjnej frakcji cechy drażliwej. Omówiono również problem ochrony prywatności. Przeanalizowano własności nowo zaproponowanego modelu, a następnie porównano go z tradycyjnym modelem krzyżowym. Pokazano, że klasyczny model krzyżowy jest specjalnym przypadkiem zaproponowanego modelu uogólnionego. Wykazano również, że to uogólnienie ma duże znaczenie dla praktyki.
