چکیده

Estimation of the ratio of two totals is considered, when a probability sample from the finite population is available. Four estimators of the ratio are examined. The first one – called “simple” – is the ratio of the Horvitz–Thompson estimators of totals; the second – the ratio of two ratio estimators of totals; the third one – the ratio of two regression estimators of totals. The fourth one is a calibrated estimator of the ratio. The variances of these estimators are compared. The properties of such estimators of the ratio are studied. The simulation results are presented.

Estimation of E(Y) from a Population with Known Quantiles

‎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 ...

Some 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...

Accuracy of Genomic Prediction under Different Genetic Architectures and Estimation Methods

The accuracy of genomic breeding value prediction was investigated in various levels of reference population size, trait heritability and the number of quantitative trait locus (QTL). Five Bayesian methods, including Bayesian Ridge regression, BayesA, BayesB, BayesC and Bayesian LASSO, were used to estimate the marker effects for each of 27 scenarios resulted from combining three levels for her...

Sex determination by the length ratio of metacarpals and phalanges: X-ray study on Iranian population

Background: In forensic anthropological identification, we usually use body remains. Accurate sex estimation from these remains is very important and needs the knowledge of specific population standards of that area. Sometimes, human remains are damaged by environmental circumstances. So, we must examine single bones for sex estimation. One of the relatively resistant bones to environmental con...
