Estimating a ratio of means from bivariate counts with applications in stereology

In survey sampling and in stereology, it is often desirable to estimate the ratio of means ?= E(Y)/E(X) from bivariate count data (X, Y) with unknown joint distribution. We review methods that are available for this problem, with particular reference to stereological applications. We also develop ne...
