The Chain Ratio Estimator and Regression Estimator with Linear Combination of Two Auxiliary Variables
نویسنده
چکیده
In sample surveys, it is usual to make use of auxiliary information to increase the precision of the estimators. We propose a new chain ratio estimator and regression estimator of a finite population mean using linear combination of two auxiliary variables and obtain the mean squared error (MSE) equations for the proposed estimators. We find theoretical conditions that make proposed estimators more efficient than the traditional multivariate ratio estimator and the regression estimator using information of two auxiliary variables.

Comparison 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...

متن کاملA Study on the Class of Chain Ratio–type Estimators
This paper considers the problem of estimating the population mean Ybar of the study variate Y using information on different parameters such as population mean $(bar{X})$, coefficient of variation $(C_x)$, kurtosis $beta_{2(x)}$, standard deviation $(S_x)$ of the auxiliary variate x and on the correlation coefficient, $rho$, between the study variate $Y$ and the auxiliary variate $...
متن کاملLiu Estimates and Influence Analysis in Regression Models with Stochastic Linear Restrictions and AR (1) Errors
In the linear regression models with AR (1) error structure when collinearity exists, stochastic linear restrictions or modifications of biased estimators (including Liu estimators) can be used to reduce the estimated variance of the regression coefficients estimates. In this paper, the combination of the biased Liu estimator and stochastic linear restrictions estimator is considered to overcom...
متن کاملImprovement in Estimating Population Mean using Two Auxiliary Variables in Two-Phase Sampling
This study proposes improved chain-ratio type estimator for estimating population mean using some known values of population parameter(s) of the second auxiliary character. The proposed estimators have been compared with two-phase ratio estimator and some other chain ratio type estimators. The performances of the proposed estimators have been supported with a numerical illustration.
