A bias correction for multiple-recapture sampling is proposed. The correction is similar to Chapman's (1951, University of California Publication in Statistics 1, 131-160) correction of the Lincoln-Petersen estimator of population size. Small-sample properties of the modified population size estimator are examined using Monte Carlo simulation. Substantial reductions in estimator bias and variance are obtained with the modified estimator.
本文提出了一种针对多重捕获抽样的偏差校正方法。该校正方法类似于查普曼（1951年，《加利福尼亚大学统计学出版物》第1卷，第131 - 160页）对林肯 - 彼得森种群规模估计量的校正。通过蒙特卡罗模拟研究了修正后的种群规模估计量的小样本性质。使用修正后的估计量可大幅降低估计偏差和方差。
