Topological anonymity in networks
Statistics Netherlands has been investigating Network data as a source of new statistics. This implies new questions in the area of statistical disclosure control. In this paper a theory for...
PhD student investigates causes of premature birth
On 18 January 2022, Eduardo Villamor Martinez obtained his PhD cum laude from Maastricht University.
On Kalman filtering and variances after single and multiple imputation
Using Kalman equations, we derive straightforward formulas for the total imputation variance for several imputation methods commonly used in regression analysis and (un)equal probability sampling...
Complexity and simplification of networks (v2)
The paper deals with two topics: the quantification of the complexity of networks (graphs and digraphs) and the simplification of networks by identifying their most important parts (nodes and arcs /...
Including migration in hedonic valuation: earthquakes
This paper is an attempt to estimate the willingness to pay for earthquake reduction in and around the province of Groningen (2012-2018), whilst using a discrete choice model to incorporate...
An estimator for ratios of Poisson distributed quantities
A common task for national statistical institutes is to estimate the size of a subpopulation, with certain specific characteristics, as a proportion of a larger population or subpopulation. This...
How the mathematics of complex systems contributes to statistics
On Wednesday 20 October 2021, Professor Frank Pijpers gave his inaugural lecture on Empirical explorations of a complex society at the University of Amsterdam.

Geographic location estimation of mobile devices
A working paper in which a modular Bayesian framework is proposed to estimate the geographic location of mobile devices from mobile phone network data.
Nowcasting GDP growth rate: a potential substitute for the current flash estimate
Currently Statistics Netherlands provides a first estimate of the GDP growth rate 45 days after the end of the reference quarter.
Fair algorithms in context
Decisions in our society are increasingly supported by Artificial Intelligence (AI). In this work we refer to AI as computers doing ‘intelligent’ tasks. This can for example be determining good moves...
