The present paper deals with the estimation of population mean of the study variable using the linear combination of known population values of coefficient of skewness and quartile deviation of auxiliary variable. Two modified ratio estimators for estimation of population mean of the study variable involving the above linear combinations are being used. Mean squared errors and biases up to the first degree of approximation are derived and compared with the proposed modified ratio estimators. The proposed modified ratio estimators perform better than the existing ratio estimators. The empirical study has been carried out in support of the results.

We propose a new modified ratio estimator of population mean of the main variable using the linear combination of known values of Co-efficient of Kurtosis and Tri-Mean of the auxiliary variable. Mean Square Error (MSE) and bias of the proposed estimator is calculated and compared with the existing estimator. The comparison is demonstrated numerically which shows that the proposed estimator performs better than the existing estimators.

Abstract In this paper we have proposed a class of modified ratio type variance estimators for estimation of population variance of the study variable using the known parameters of the auxiliary variable. The bias and mean squared error of the proposed estimators are obtained and also derived the conditions for which the proposed estimators perform better than the traditional ratio type variance estimator and existing modified ratio type variance estimators. Further we have compared the proposed estimators with that of the traditional ratio type variance estimator and existing modified ratio type variance estimators for certain natural populations.

This paper addresses the problem of estimating the population mean  of the study variable using information on transformed auxiliary variables. In addition to many, Yasmeen et al (2015) estimator shown to the members of the suggested classes of estimators. We have derived the bias and mean squared error (MSE) of the suggested classes of estimators to the first degree of approximation. We have obtained the optimum conditions for which the suggested classes of estimators have minimum mean squared errors. It has been shown that the proposed classes of estimators are more efficient than the estimators recently envisaged by Yasmeen et al (2015) and other existing estimators.

In this paper, we propose modified ratio estimators using some known values of coefficient of variation, coefficient of skewness and coefficient of kurtosis of auxiliary variable under ranked set sampling (RSS).  The mean square error (MSE) of the proposed ratio estimators under ranked set sampling is derived and compared with some existing ratio estimators under RSS. Through this comparison, we prove theoretically that MSC of proposed estimators is less than some existing ratio estimators in RSS under some conditions. The MSE of proposed estimators along with some existing estimator are also calculated numerically. We observe from numerical results that the suggested ratio estimators are more efficient than some existing ratio estimators under RSS.

AbstractThe present paper provides a remedy for improved estimation of population mean of a study variable, using the information related to an auxiliary variable in the situations under Simple Random Sampling Scheme. We suggest a new class of estimators of population mean and the Bias and MSE of the class are derived upto the first order of approximation. The least value of the MSE for the suggested class of estimators is also obtained for the optimum value of the characterizing scaler. The MSE has also been compared with the considered existing competing estimators both theoretically and empirically. The theoretical conditions for the increased efficiency of the proposed class, compared to the competing estimators, is verified using a natural population.

Cost-effective sampling design is a problem of major concern in some experiments especially when the measurement of the characteristic of interest is costly or painful or time-consuming. In this article, we investigate ratio-type estimators of the population mean of the study variable, involving either the first or the third quartile of the auxiliary variable, using ranked set sampling (RSS) and extreme ranked set sampling (ERSS) schemes. The properties of the estimators are obtained. The estimators in RSS and ERSS are compared to their counterparts in simple random sampling (SRS) for normal data. The numerical results show that the estimators in RSS and ERSS are significantly more efficient than their counterparts in SRS.

It is a common experience in sample survey that data cannot always be collected for all units selected in the sample at the first attempt and even after some call-backs. An estimate obtained from such incomplete data may be misleading because of the non-response in the data. In addition, the population mean of the auxiliary variable from the previous census may not be available. In this paper, Modified regression type estimators proposed by Tum et al. (2014) in single phase sampling, assuming complete response, have been proposed to estimate the population mean of the study variable in the presence of non-response under two phase sampling scheme. The expression of mean squared errors (MSE) based on the proposed estimators have been derived under two phase sampling to the first degree of approximation. A comparison of the proposed estimators with the usual unbiased estimator and existing estimators under two phase sampling scheme have been carried out. The proposed Modified regression type estimators have been found to be the most efficient compared to the existing estimators and they are recommended for use in practice.
