This paper proposes some exponential ratio type estimators of population mean under the situations when certain observations for some sampling units are missing. These missing observations may be for either auxiliary variable or study variable. The biases and mean square errors of the proposed estimators have been derived, up to the first order of approximation. The proposed estimators are comp...

The Mean Shift (MS) algorithm allows to identify clusters that are catchment areas of modes of a probability density function (pdf). We propose to use a multiscale and hierarchical implementation of the algorithm to process grid data of population and identify automatically urban centers and their dependant sub-centers through scales. The multiscale structure is obtained by increasing iterative...

An attempt has been made to estimate reliability for mean of normal population with known CV. The function is derived and curves have shown this function. It seen that effect skewness considerable but the kurtosis not much.
