Generalized Modified Ratio Estimator for Estimation of Finite Population Mean
نویسنده
چکیده
A generalized modified ratio estimator is proposed for estimating the population mean using the known population parameters. It is shown that the simple random sampling without replacement sample mean, the usual ratio estimator, the linear regression estimator and all the existing modified ratio estimators are the particular cases of the proposed estimator. The bias and the mean squared error of the proposed estimator are derived and are compared with that of existing estimators. The conditions for which the proposed estimator performs better than the existing estimators are also derived. The performance of the proposed estimator is assessed with that of the existing estimators for certain natural populations

Modified Sampling Strategies Using Correlation Coefficient for Estimating Population Mean
This paper proposes two sampling strategies based on the modified ratio estimator using the population mean of auxiliary variable and population correlation coefficient between the study variable and the auxiliary variable by Singh and Tailor (2003) for estimating the population mean (total) of the study variable in a finite population. A comparative study is made with usual sampling strategies...
متن کاملModified Ratio cum Product Estimator for Estimation of Finite Population Mean with Known Correlation Coefficient
In sampling theory, a wide variety of techniques is used to obtain efficient estimators for the population mean. The commonly used method to obtain the estimator for population mean is simple random sampling without replacement (SRSWOR) when there is no auxiliary variable available. There are methods that use the auxiliary information of the study characteristics. If there exists an auxiliary v...
متن کاملOn Presentation a new Estimator for Estimating of Population Mean in the Presence of Measurement error and non-Response
Introduction According to the classic sampling theory, errors that are mainly considered in the estimations are sampling errors. However, most non-sampling errors are more effective than sampling errors in properties of estimators. This has been confirmed by researchers over the past two decades, especially in relation to non-response errors that are one of the most fundamental non-immolation...
متن کاملSome Improvment in the Estimation of Population Mean in Cluster Sampling
Gupta and Shabbir (2008) have suggested an alternative form of ratio-type estimator for estimating the population mean. In this paper, we introduced new estimators by mixing two, stratified and cluster sampling method. Then we improved these estimators by using auxiliary variables and introducing new estimators. For sampling in infinite populations with a high geographic dispersion, the populat...

‎In this paper‎, ‎we consider the problem of estimating E(Y) based on a simple random sample when at least one of the population quantiles is known‎. ‎We propose a stratified estimator of E(Y)‎, ‎and show that it is strongly consistent‎. ‎We then establish the asymptotic normality of the suggested estimator‎, ‎and prove that it ...
