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.

Novel Applications

In this paper we discuss two case studies which clearly indicate the advantages of using a ranked set sample (RSS) over those of a simple random sample (SRS). The applications of RSS considered here cover single family homes sales data, and tree data. It is demonstrated that in each case RSS is much more efficient than SRS for estimation of population mean.

Modified Maximum Likelihood

In this paper we consider estimation of R = P(Y < X), when X and Y are distributed as two independent four-parameter generalized gamma random variables with same location and scale parameters. A modified maximum likelihood method and a Bayesian technique have been used to estimate R on the basis of independent samples. As the Bayes estimator cannot be obtained in a closed form, it has been implemented using importance sampling procedure. A simulation study has also been carried out to compare the two methods.

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.

In this paper, the reliability of the stress-strength model is derived for probability P( <X< ) of a component strength X between two stresses ,  , when X and ,  are independent Gompertz Fréchet distribution with unknown and known shape parameters and common known scale parameters. Different methods used to estimate R and Gompertz Fréchet distribution parameters which are [Maximum Likelihood, Least square, Weighted Least square, Regression and Ranked set sampling methods], and the comparison between these estimations by simulation study based on mean square error criteria. The comparison confirms that the performance of the maximum likelihood estimator works better than the other estimators.
