Calibration-Based Estimators using Different Distance Measures under Two Auxiliary Variables: A Comparative Study

Comparison of Ratio Estimators with Two Auxiliary Variables

Many estimators of the population parameters are constructed using known auxiliary variables. The classical well known ratio estimator is one of them. Ratio estimators are frequently employed in sample surveys when estimating the population mean Y of a variate Y with the help of the known population means of a correlated auxiliary variables. Various improvements of this ratio estimator have bee...

Optimal Calibration Estimators under Two-phase Sampling

A Class of Ratio Estimators of a Finite Population Mean Using Two Auxiliary Variables

In sample surveys, it is usual to increase the efficiency of the estimators by the use of the auxiliary information. We propose a class of ratio estimators of a finite population mean using two auxiliary variables and obtain mean square error (MSE) equations for the class of proposed estimators. We find theoretical conditions that make proposed family estimators more efficient than the traditio...

Some estimators for a finite population mean under two-stage sampling using multivariate auxiliary information

In this paper, we have derived difference, regression and predictor estimators for two-stage sampling with unequal first-stage units using multivariate auxiliary information. The mean square error of these estimators have been derived. A numerical illustration is given for finding the relative comparisons. 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

transference of imagery: a comparative formalistic study of shakespeares hamlet and its two persian translations

هدف از این تحقیق بررسی انتقال صور خیال هملت در دو ترجمه ی فارسی آن از نظر فرمالیستی بود. برای بدست آوردن داده-های مورد نیاز، 130 نمونه استعاره، مجاز، ایهام، کنایه و پارادوکس در متن اصلی مشخص شده و سپس بر اساس مدل نیومارک (1998) برای ترجمه ی استعاره یا بطور کلی زبان مجاز با معادل های فارسی شان مقایسه گردیدند. این تحقیق بر آن بود تا روش های استفاده شده برای ترجمه هر کدام از انواع زبان مجاز ذکر شد...
