Comments on: Deville and Särndal’s calibration: revisiting a 25 years old successful optimization problem

We provide a brief discussion on the development of model calibration techniques and optimal calibration estimation in survey sampling and its relation to Deville and Sarndal’s calibration, and applications of model calibration to missing data problems for robust inference.
