In this paper we discuss the issue of efficiency of a ranked set sample compared to a simple random sample in the context of a variety of parametric estimation problems. We establish that the use of appropriate variations of a ranked set sample often results in improved estimation of many common parameters of interest with a substantially smaller number of measurements compared to a simple random sample.

This paper describes the modified maximum likelihood estimator (MMLE) of location and scale parameters based on selected ranked set sampling (SRSS) for normal, uniform and two-parameter exponential distributions. For these distributions, the MMLE of location and scale parameters for SRSS data were compared with the estimators of location and scale parameters for simple random sample (SRS) and ranked set sample (RSS). The MMLE based on SRSS data were found to be advantageous as compared to SRS and RSS estimators for the same number of measurements. The SRSS method with errors in ranking was also described. The minimum correlation between the actual and erroneous ranking was required for MMLE of SRSS to achieve better precision than usual SRS and RSS estimators. When the wrong assumption about the underlying distribution was present, the MMLE of the population mean based on SRSS was better than the RSS estimator ofthe population mean for all the cases considered.

An asymptotic measure is provided to evaluate the effect on loss of accuracy for censored data in parametric estimation of location and scale parameters. With this measure, it is shown that the amount of effect from censored data relative to noncensored data is invariant of the actual values of the location and scale parameters, but is only dependent on the form of underlying distributions which the data are originated. In addition, among the most well-known distributions, obtained results for the measure show that two censored data values together usually may possess more information than one noncensored data value in the parametric estimation for location and scale parameters.

Recently, a generalized ranked set sampling (RSS) scheme has been introduced which encompasses several existing RSS schemes, namely varied L RSS (VLRSS), and it provides more precise estimators of the population mean than the estimators with the traditional simple random sampling (SRS) and RSS schemes. In this paper, we extend the work and consider the maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) of the location and scale parameters when sampling from a location-scale family of distributions. In order to give more insight into the performance of VLRSS with respect to SRS and RSS schemes, the asymptotic relative precisions of the MLEs using VLRSS relative to that using SRS and RSS are compared for some usual location-scale distributions. It turns out that the MLEs with VLRSS are more precise than those with the existing sampling schemes.
