An Efficient Class of Chain Estimators of Population Variance under Sub-sampling Scheme
نویسندگان
چکیده
For estimating the population variance S y of study variable y, a class of chain estimators of S y has been proposed in the presence of two auxiliary variables x and z by using known information on population mean and variance of the second auxiliary variable z. In this proposed class, the second auxiliary variable z is directly highly correlated with the first auxiliary variable x, whereas the variable z is correlated with the variable y due to only the high correlation between the variables y and x. Another generalized class of estimators of S y has also been considered by using the same available information of auxiliary variable z when both the auxiliary variables x and z are directly highly correlated with the study variable y. The asymptotic expressions for the mean square errors and their optimum values have been obtained. A comparison between the two proposed classes of estimators of S y has been made empirically.

On the Simple Inverse Sampling with Replacement
In this paper we derive some unbiased estimators of the population mean under simple inverse sampling with replacement, using the class of Hansen-Hurwitz and Horvitz-Thompson type estimators and the post-stratification approach. We also compare the efficiency of resulting estimators together with Murthy's estimator. We show that in despite of general belief, the strategy consisting of inverse s...

This paper presents some chain ratio-type estimators for estimating finite population variance using two auxiliary variables in two phase sampling set up. The expressions for biases and mean squared errors of the suggested classes of estimators are given. Asymptotic optimum estimators (AOE’s) in each class are identified with their approximate mean squared error formulae. The theoretical and em...
متن کاملA ratio chain-type exponential estimator for finite population mean using double sampling
In this article, we have proposed a ratio chain-type exponential estimator for finite population mean of the study variable under double sampling scheme using auxiliary variables. The large sample properties of the suggested strategy are derived up to first order, of approximation, and its competence conditions are carried out under which the suggested estimator is performed better than the oth...
متن کاملA General Class of Estimators of a Finite Population Mean Using Multi-auxiliary Information under Two Stage Sampling Scheme
Abstract In sample surveys, it is usual to make use of auxiliary information to increase the precision of estimators. A general class of estimators is suggested to estimate the population mean for the variable under study in two stage sampling scheme. Some special cases of this class of estimators are considered and are compared by using a data set. It turns out that the newly suggested estimat...
