Improved Estimation of Population Mean Using Median and Coefficient of Variation of Auxiliary Variable
This manuscript deals with the estimation of population mean of the variable under study using an improved ratio type estimator utilizing the known values of median and coefficient of variation of auxiliary variable. The expressions for the bias and mean square error (MSE) of the proposed estimator are obtained up to the first order of approximation. The optimum estimator is also obtained for t...
متن کاملEstimation of Finite Population Variance Using Scrambled Responses in the Presence of Auxiliary Information
In this paper, a new estimator for estimating the finite population variance of a sensitive variable based on scrambled responses collected using a randomization device is introduced. The estimator is then improved by using known auxiliary information. The estimators due to Das and Tripathi (1978: Sankhya) and Isaki (1983: JASA) are shown to be special cases of the proposed estimator. Numerical...
متن کاملVariance Estimation in Ranked Set Sampling Using a Concomitant Variable
We propose a nonparametric variance estimator when ranked set sampling (RSS) and judgment post stratification (JPS) are applied by measuring a concomitant variable. Our proposed estimator is obtained by conditioning on observed concomitant values and using nonparametric kernel regression.
متن کاملA Class of Regression Type Estimators using Mean And Variance of Auxiliary Variable
In this paper, a regression type estimator representing a class of estimators is proposed to estimate the population mean of the study variable. The bias and mean square error of the proposed estimator are obtained. Also the optimizing value of the unknown parameter is derived and the expression of minimum mean square error is obtained. Further since the proposed estimator is biased, a jackknif...
متن کاملEstimation of Variance of Normal Distribution using Ranked Set Sampling
Introduction In some biological, environmental or ecological studies, there are situations in which obtaining exact measurements of sample units are much harder than ranking them in a set of small size without referring to their precise values. In these situations, ranked set sampling (RSS), proposed by McIntyre (1952), can be regarded as an alternative to the usual simple random sampling ...
