Ranked Set Sampling for Estimating the Difference of Means
نویسنده
چکیده
Ranked set sampling permits to use anciliary information to rank the units. The drawing of them using the ranks is at least equivalent to random sampling. In this paper this method is applied for deriving estimators of the difference.

Missing Observation for Estimating the Difference: Ranked Set Sampling versus Simple Random Sampling
The estimation of the difference of means of two variables is studied when missing observations are present. The model follows the approach proposed in the paper of Bouza and Prabhu-Ajgaonkar [1993, Biometrical J., v.35, p.245-252] when simple random sampling is the design used for selecting samples and sub-samples. In this paper, a ranked set-sampling counterpart is developed. Their sample err...
متن کاملEstimation of Variance of Normal Distribution using Ranked Set Sampling
Introduction In some biological, environmental or ecological studies, there are situations in which obtaining exact measurements of sample units are much harder than ranking them in a set of small size without referring to their precise values. In these situations, ranked set sampling (RSS), proposed by McIntyre (1952), can be regarded as an alternative to the usual simple random sampling ...
متن کاملStratified Median Ranked Set Sampling: Optimum and Proportional Allocations
In this paper, for the Stratified Median Ranked Set Sampling (SMRSS), proposed by Ibrahim et al. (2010), we examine the proportional and optimum sample allocations that are two well-known methods for sample allocation in stratified sampling. We show that the variances of the mean estimators of a symmetric population in SMRSS using optimum and proportional allocations to strata are smaller than ...
متن کاملTest of the Correlation Coefficient in Bivariate Normal Populations Using Ranked Set Sampling
Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) is a statistical method for data collection that leads to more efficient estimators than competitors based on Simple Random Sampling (SRS). We consider testing the correlation coefficient of bivariate normal distribution based on Bivariate RSS (BVRSS). Under one-sided and two-sided alternatives, we show that the new tests based on BVRSS are more powerful than the usua...
متن کاملMultistage Median Ranked Set Sampling for Estimating the Population Median
We modify RSS to come up with new sampling method, namely, Multistage Median Ranked Set Sampling (MMRSS). The MMRSS was suggested for estimating the population median and to increase the efficiency of the estimator for specific value of the sample size. The MMRSS was compared to the Simple Random Sampling (SRS), Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) and Median Ranked Set Sampling (MRSS) methods. It is foun...
