Add estimation for k-tree sampling #3

Closed sebschnell closed 6 years ago

sebschnell commented 6 years ago

Issue: There are several approaches for approximating the unknown expansion factors for k-tree sampling that are currently not included in the estiamtion routines.

Solution: Add the approximations of Kleinn and Vilcko (2006) and Prodan's method. Another possibility would be to add the design-unbiased approach from Kleinn and Vilcko (2006) - Voronoi polygons; maybe in the long run.
