Implicit Linear Inequality Edits Generation and Error Localization in the SPEER Edit System Maria Garcia U.S. Census Bureau UNECE Work Session on Statistical Data Editing May 16-18, 2005, Ottawa, Canada
SPEER Editing System Fellegi-Holt system for continuous data under ratio and balance edits All implied ratio edits are available
New SPEER System Pre-processing program for implied edit generation Optimality of ratio edits bounds All SPEER modules rewritten Simplified error localization Calculation of imputation intervals
Number of Times Field in Balance Edits is Marked for Deletion ASM Fields
Remarks Maintains SPEER exceptional speed Better job of error localization SPEER’97 heuristics not needed Computer time (8 hours to generate linear inequality edits)
