Based on the natural logarithm of known population mean of an auxiliaryvariable, x, the study introduces logarithmic ratio and product-type estimatorsof the population mean of the study variable, y, in simple random samplingwithout replacement (SRSWOR) scheme. Part of the eciency conditions forthe proposed logarithmic estimators to be more ecient than the existing ex-ponential ratio and product-type estimators, as well as the customary ratio andproduct-type estimators, is that the natural logarithm of the known populationmean of the auxiliary variable, x, must be greater than 2. Generally, there is ahigh tendency for the proposed logarithmic estimators to be more ecient thanexisting customary and exponential ratio and product-type estimators whenthe natural logarithm of the auxiliary variable population mean is greater than2. The theoretical results are illustrated and conrmed using some numericaldatasets.

Two Phase Sampling

In the present paper, we have proposed some improved estimators of the population mean utilizing the information on two auxiliary variables adopting the idea of two-phase sampling under non-response. In order to propose the estimators, we have assumed that the study variable and first auxiliary variable suffer from non-response while the second (additional) auxiliary variable is free from non-response. We have derived the expressions for biases and mean square errors of the proposed estimators and compared them with that of usual estimator and some well known existing estimators of the population mean. The theoretical results have also been illustrated with some empirical data.

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.

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.

Introduction: In sampling theory, different procedures are used to obtain the efficient estimator of the population mean. The commonly used method is to obtain the estimator of the population mean is simple random sampling without replacement when there is no auxiliary variable is available. There are methods that use auxiliary information of the study characteristics. If the auxiliary variable is correlated with study variable, number of estimators are widely available in the literature.Objective: This study deals with a new ratio cum product estimator is developed for the estimation of population mean of the study variable with the known median of the auxiliary variable in simple random sampling.Materials and Methods: The bias and mean squared error of proposed estimator are derived and compared with that of the existing estimators by analytically and numerically.Results: The proposed estimator is less biased and mean squared error is less than that of the existing estimators and from the numerical study, under some known natural populations, the bias of proposed estimator is approximately zero and the mean squared error ranged from 6.83 to 66429.21 and percentage relative efficiencies ranged from 103.65 to 2858.75.Conclusion: The proposed estimator under optimum conditions is almost unbiased and performs better than all other existing estimators.Nepalese Journal of Statistics, 2017, Vol. 1, 1-14

In This paper a modied ratio-type estimator for nite population mean under stratied random sampling using single auxiliary variable has been proposed. The expression for mean square error and bias of the proposed estimator are derived up to the rst order of approximation. The expression for minimum mean square error of proposed estimator is also obtained. The mean square error the proposed estimator is compared with other existing estimators theoretically and condition are obtained under which proposed estimator performed better. A real life population data set has been considered to compare the efciency of the proposed estimator numerically.
