A flexible ranked set sampling scheme including some various existing sampling methods  is proposed. This scheme may be used to minimize the  error of ranking and the cost of sampling. Based on the data obtained from this scheme, the maximum likelihood estimation as well as the Fisher information are studied for the  scale family of distributions. The existence and uniqueness of  the  maximum likelihood estimator  of the scale parameter of the exponential  and  normal distributions are  investigated. Moreover, the optimal scheme is derived via simulation and numerical computations.

This article studies the properties of the maximum likelihood estimator of the population proportion in ranked set sampling with extreme ranks. The maximum likelihood estimator is described and its asymptotic distribution is derived. Finite sample size properties of the estimator are investigated using simulation studies. It turns out that the proposed estimator is substantially more efficient than its simple random sampling and ranked set sampling analogs, as the true population proportion tends to zero/unity. The method is illustrated using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.

Nakagami distribution is considered. The classical maximum likelihood estimator has been obtained. Bayesian method of estimation is employed in order to estimate the scale parameter of Nakagami distribution by using Jeffreys’, Extension of Jeffreys’, and Quasi priors under three different loss functions. Also the simulation study is conducted in R software.
