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

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.

In this paper, we propose a generalized class of exponential type estimators for estimating the finite population mean using two auxiliary attributes under simple random sampling and stratified random sampling. The bias and mean squared error (MSE) of the proposed class of estimators are derived up to first order of approximation. Both empirical study and theoretical comparisons are discussed. Four populations are used to support the theoretical findings. It is observed that the proposed class of estimators perform better as compared to all other considered estimator in simple and stratified random sampling.

Robust Measures

In this paper, a generalized class of estimators for the estimation of population median are proposed under simple random sampling without replacement (SRSWOR) through robust measures of the auxiliary variable. Three robust measures, decile mean, Hodges–Lehmann estimator, and trimean of an auxiliary variable, are used. Mathematical properties of the proposed estimators such as bias, mean squared error (MSE), and minimum MSE are derived up to first order of approximation. We considered various real-life datasets and a simulation study to check the potentiality of the proposed estimators over the competitors. Robustness is also examined through a real dataset. Based on the fascinating results, the researchers are encouraged to use the proposed estimators for population median under SRSWOR.

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.

In this paper, we proposed two new families of estimators using the supplementary information on the auxiliary variable and exponential function for the population distribution functions in case of nonresponse under simple random sampling. The estimations are done in two nonresponse scenarios. These are nonresponse on study variable and nonresponse on both study and auxiliary variables. As we have highlighted above that two new families of estimators are proposed, in the first family, the mean was used, while in the second family, ranks were used as auxiliary variables. Expression of biases and mean squared error of the proposed and existing estimators are obtained up to the first order of approximation. The performances of the proposed and existing estimators are compared theoretically. On these theoretical comparisons, we demonstrate that the proposed families of estimators are better in performance than the existing estimators available in the literature, under the obtained conditions. Furthermore, these theoretical findings are braced numerically by an empirical study offering the proposed relative efficiencies of the proposed families of estimators.

Using auxiliary information, a family of difference-cum-exponential type estimators for estimating the population variance of variable under study have been proposed under double sampling design. Expressions for bias, mean squared error and its minimum values have been obtained. The comparisons have been made with the regression-type estimator by using simple random sampling at both occasions in double sampling design. It has also been shown that better estimators can be obtained from the proposed family of estimators which are more efficient than the linear regression type estimator. Results have also been illustrated numerically as well asgraphically.

<abstract><p>This paper addresses the issue of estimating the population mean for non-response using simple random sampling. A new family of estimators is proposed for estimating the population mean with auxiliary information on the sample mean and the rank of the auxiliary variable. Bias and mean square errors of existing and proposed estimators are obtained using the first order of measurement. Theoretical comparisons are made of the performance of the proposed and existing estimators. We show that the proposed family of estimators is more efficient than existing estimators in the literature under the given constraints using these theoretical comparisons.</p></abstract>

Abstract With this article in mind, we have found some results using eigenvalues of graph with sign. It is intriguing to note that these results help us to find the determinant of Normalized Laplacian matrix of signed graph and their coe cients of characteristic polynomial using the number of vertices. Also we found bounds for the lowest value of eigenvalue.
