Some improved estimators of finite population quantile using auxiliary information in sample surveys
The problem of quantile estimation using quantiles Qx( ) in which the order of the auxiliary variable is di4erent from that of the main variable to be estimated, Qy( ), is considered. Certain new estimators for the -quantile have been proposed for any sampling design. The e4ect of this modi"cation on the standard estimators, ratio, position, strati"cation, regression and di4erence type estimato...
متن کاملImproved ratio-type estimators of finite population variance using quartiles
In this paper we have proposed some ratio-type estimators of finite population variance using known values of parameters related to an auxiliary variable such as quartiles with their properties in simple random sampling. The suggested estimators have been compared with the usual unbiased and ratio estimators and the estimators due to [2], [12, 13, 14] and [3]. An empirical study is also carried...
متن کاملImproved Exponential Type Estimators of Finite Population Mean under Complete and Partial Auxiliary Information
This paper proposes some improved exponential type estimators of finite population mean under simple random sampling and double sampling. Expressions for biases and mean squared errors of the proposed estimators are derived up to the first order of approximation. Theoretical and numerical comparisons are made to investigate the performances of the estimators. The proposed estimators always perf...
متن کاملEffect of Measurement Errors on a Class of Estimators of Population Mean Using Auxiliary Information in Sample Surveys
We consider the problem of estimation the population mean of the study variate Y in presence of measurement errors when information on an auxiliary character X is known. A class of estimators for population means using information on an auxiliary variate X is defined. Expressions for its asymptotic bias and mean square error are obtained. Optimum conditions are obtained for which the mean...
متن کاملFinite population estimators in stochastic search variable selection
Monte Carlo algorithms are commonly used to identify a set of models for Bayesian model selection or model averaging. Because empirical frequencies of models are often zero or one in high-dimensional problems, posterior probabilities calculated from the observed marginal likelihoods, renormalized over the sampled models, are often employed. Such estimates are the only recourse in several newer ...
