Modeling heterogeneity of capture probabilities in capture-recapture studies

In capture-recapture studies, the estimate of the size of the population is biased when members differ in the probability of capture by any source. Different log-linear models can account for the heterogeneity among individuals, using covariate information. We compare different methods modeling this...
