CHAPTER 9 Audit Sampling
However, when using systematic sampling on a population that is not in random order, it may be necessary to stratify the population into segments or to use a relatively large number of starting points to produce a random sample.

Using Random Forest to Learn Imbalanced Data
statistics.berkeley.edusampling seems to have an edge over over-sampling. However, down-sampling the majority class may result in loss of information, as a large part of the majority class is not used. Random forest inspired us to ensemble trees induced from balanced down-sampled data. The Balanced Random Forest (BRF) algorithm is shown below: 1.
Chapter 6 Importance sampling
www.math.arizona.edurandom variable we want to compute the mean of is of the form f(X~) where X~ is a random vector. We will assume that the joint distribution of X~ is absolutely continous and let p(~x) be the density. (Everything we will do also works for the case where the random vector X~ is discrete.) So we focus on computing Ef(X~) = Z f(~x)p(~x)dx (6.1)
