چکیده
In this paper exponential ratio and exponential product type estimators using two auxiliary variables are proposed for estimating unknown population variance y S . Problem is extended to the case of two-phase sampling. Theoretical results are supported by an empirical study.

Improved Exponential Type Ratio Estimator of Population Variance
This article considers the problem of estimating the population variance using auxiliary information. An improved version of Singh’s exponential type ratio estimator has been proposed and its properties have been studied under large sample approximation. It is shown that the proposed exponential type ratio estimator is more efficient than that considered by the Singh estimator, conventional rat...
متن کاملA New Exponential Type Estimator for the Population Mean in Simple Random Sampling
In this paper, a new estimate of exponential type of auxiliary information to help simple random sampling without replacement of the finite population mean is introduced. This new estimator with a few other estimates using two real data sets are compared with the mean square error.
متن کاملA New Exponential Ratio-Type Estimator with Linear Combination of Two Auxiliary Variables
In sample surveys, it is usual to make use of auxiliary information to increase the precision of estimators. We propose a new exponential ratio-type estimator of a finite population mean using linear combination of two auxiliary variables and obtain mean square error (MSE) equation for proposed estimator. We find theoretical conditions that make proposed estimator more efficient than traditiona...
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...
متن کاملComparison of Small Area Estimation Methods for Estimating Unemployment Rate
Extended Abstract. In recent years, needs for small area estimations have been greatly increased for large surveys particularly household surveys in Sta­ tistical Centre of Iran (SCI), because of the costs and respondent burden. The lack of suitable auxiliary variables between two decennial housing and popula­ tion census is a challenge for SCI in using these methods. In general, the...
