In this paper, the derivation of the likelihood function for parameter estimation based on double ranked set sampling (DRSS) designs used by Sabry el.al.; (2019) for the estimation of the parameters of the power generalized Weibull distribution is considered. The developed likelihood function is then used for the estimation of the exponential Pareto distribution parameters. The maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) are then investigated and compared to the corresponding ones based on simple random sampling (SRS) and ranked set sampling (RSS) designs. A Monte Carlo simulation is conducted and the absolute relative biases, mean square errors, and efficiencies are compared for the different designs. The relative efficiency of the DRSS estimates with respect to other designs was found to be higher in case of the exponential Pareto distribution (EP).

In this paper, the likelihood function for parameter estimation based on double ranked set sampling (DRSS) schemes is introduced. The proposed likelihood function is used for the estimation of the Weibull distribution parameters. The maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) are investigated and compared to the corresponding ones based on simple random sampling (SRS) and ranked set sampling (RSS) schemes. A Monte Carlo simulation is conducted and the absolute relative biases, mean square errors, and efficiencies are compared for the different schemes. It is found that, the MLEs based on DRSS is more efficient than MLE using SRS and RSS for estimating the two parameters of the Weibull distribution (WD).

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 chapter, the authors consider the problem of estimating the population means of two sensitive variables by making use ranked set sampling. The final estimators are unbiased and the variance expressions that they derive show that ranked set sampling is more efficient than simple random sampling. A convex combination of the variance expressions of the resultant estimators is minimized in order to suggest optimal sample sizes for both sampling schemes. The relative efficiency of the proposed estimators is then compared to the corresponding estimators for simple random sampling based on simulation study and real data applications. SAS codes utilized in the simulation to collect the empirical evidence and application are included.

The aim of this paper is to estimate the parameters of exponentiated Burr type XII distribution (EBXII) based on ranked set sampling (RSS) technique, and also simple random sampling(SRS) is provided by the method of maximum likelihood. Fisher information matrix for both (SRS) and (RSS) for the unknown parameters are derived. Simulation study compared between the estimators of both methods in terms of their biases, mean square errors, and efficiencies. It is shown that the estimators based on RSS are more efficient than those of SRS.

Estimator of finite population parameter – ratio of totals of two variables – is investigated by modelling in the case of simple random sampling. Traditional estimator of the ratio is compared with the calibrated estimator of the ratio introduced by Plikusas [1]. The Taylor series expansion of the estimators are used for the expressions of approximate biases and approximate variances [2]. Some estimator of bias is introduced in this paper. Using data of artificial population the accuracy of two estimators of the ratio is compared by modelling. Dependence of the estimates of mean square error of the estimators of the ratio on the correlation coefficient of variables which are used in the numerator and denominator, is also shown in the modelling.

Abstract Research background: Mass valuation is a process in which many properties are valued simultaneously with a uniform approach. An example of a procedure used for mass real estate valuation is the Szczecin Algorithm of Real Estate Mass Appraisal (SAREMA), which can be developed into a multiple regression model. The algorithm is based on a set of drawn representative properties. This set determines, inter alia, the quality of obtained valuations. Purpose: The objective of the study is to verify the hypothesis whether changing the method of sampling representative properties from the originally used simple random sampling to stratified sampling improves the results of the SAREMA econometric variant. Research methodology: The article presents a study that uses two methods of representative properties sampling – simple random sampling and stratified sampling. Errors of the models of valuation created taking into account both methods of sampling and different number of representative properties are compared. A key aspect of the survey is the choice of a better sampling method. Results: The study has shown that stratified sampling improves valuation results and, more specifically, allows for lower root mean square errors. Stratified sampling yielded better results in the initial phase of the study with more observations, but reducing the percentage of strata participating in the draws, despite the increase in RMSE, guaranteed lower errors than the corresponding results based on simple sampling in all variants of the study. Novelty: The article confirms the possibility of improving the results of mass property valuation by changing the scheme of representative properties sampling. The results allowed for the conclusion that stratified sampling is a better way of creating a set of representative properties.

The authors develop the estimation of the difference of means of a pair of variables X and Y when we deal with missing observations. A seminal paper in this line is due to Bouza and Prabhu-Ajgaonkar when the sample and the subsamples are selected using simple random sampling. In this this chapter, the authors consider the use of ranked set-sampling for estimating the difference when we deal with a stratified population. The sample error is deduced. Numerical comparisons with the classic stratified model are developed using simulated and real data.

This chapter introduced basic elements on stratified simple random sampling (SSRS) on ranked set sampling (RSS). The chapter extends Singh et al. results to sampling a stratified population. The mean squared error (MSE) is derived. SRS is used independently for selecting the samples from the strata. The chapter extends Singh et al. results under the RSS design. They are used for developing the estimation in a stratified population. RSS is used for drawing the samples independently from the strata. The bias and mean squared error (MSE) of the developed estimators are derived. A comparison between the biases and MSEs obtained for the sampling designs SRS and RSS is made. Under mild conditions the comparisons sustained that each RSS model is better than its SRS alternative.
