This paper suggests an efficient class of ratio and product estimators for estimating the population mean in stratified random sampling using auxiliary information. It is interesting to mention that, in addition to many, Koyuncu and Kadilar (2009), Kadilar and Cingi (2003, 2005), and Singh and Vishwakarma (2007) estimators are identified as members of the proposed class of estimators. The expressions of bias and mean square error (MSE) of the proposed estimators are derived under large sample approximation in general form. Asymptotically optimum estimator (AOE) in the class is identified alongwith its MSE formula. It has been shown that the proposed class of estimators is more efficient than combined regression estimator and Koyuncu and Kadilar (2009) estimator. Moreover, theoretical findings are supported through a numerical example. 相似文献

Kadilar and Cingi (2005) have suggested a new ratio estimator in stratified sampling. The efficiency of this estimator is compared with the traditional combined ratio estimator on the basis of mean square error (MSE). We propose another estimator by utilizing a simple transformation introduced by Bedi (1996). The proposed estimator is found to be more efficient than the traditional combined ratio estimator as well as the Kadilar and Cingi (2005) ratio estimator. 相似文献

Kadilar and Cingi (2006) have introduced an estimator for the population variance using an auxiliary variable in simple random sampling. We propose a new ratio-type exponential estimator for population variance which is always more efficient than usual ratio and regression estimators suggested by Isaki (1983) and by Kadilar and Cingi (2006). Efficiency comparison is carried out both mathematically and numerically. 相似文献

This article addresses the problem of estimating the population mean in stratified random sampling using the information of an auxiliary variable. A class of estimators for population mean is defined with its properties under large sample approximation. In particular, various classes of estimators are identified as particular member of the suggested class. It has been shown that the proposed class of estimators is better than usual unbiased estimator, usual combined ratio estimator, usual product estimator, usual regression estimator and Koyuncu and Kadilar (2009) class of estimators. The results have been illustrated through an empirical study. 相似文献

This article considers some classes of estimators of the population median of the study variable using information on an auxiliary variable with their properties under large sample approximation. Asymptotic optimum estimator (AOE) in each class of estimators has been investigated along with the approximate mean square error formulae. It has been shown that the proposed classes of estimators are better than these considered by Gross (1980), Kuk and Mak (1989), Singh et al. (2003a), and Al and Cingi (2009). An empirical study is carried out to judge the merits of the suggested class of estimators over other existing estimators. 相似文献

This article addresses the problem of estimating of finite population variance using auxiliary information in simple random sampling. A ratio-cum-difference type class of estimators for population variance has been suggested with its properties under large sample approximation. It has been shown that the suggested class of estimators is more efficient than usual unbiased, difference, Das and Tripathi (1978), Isaki (1983), Singh et al. (1988), Kadilar and Cingi (2006), and other estimators/classes of estimators. In addition, we support this theoretical result with the aid of a empirical study. 相似文献

This article considers the problem of estimating the population mean using information on two auxiliary variables in the presence of non response under two-phase sampling. Some improved ratio-in-regression type estimators have been proposed in four different situations of non response along with their properties under large sample approximation. Efficiency comparisons of the proposed estimators with the usual unbiased estimator by Hansen and Hurwitz (1946), conventional ratio and regression estimators using single auxiliary variable and Singh and Kumar (2010b) estimators using two auxiliary variables have been made. Finally, these theoretical findings are illustrated by a numerical example. 相似文献

Here, we apply the smoothing technique proposed by Chaubey et al. (2007) for the empirical survival function studied in Bagai and Prakasa Rao (1991) for a sequence of stationary non-negative associated random variables.The derivative of this estimator in turn is used to propose a nonparametric density estimator. The asymptotic properties of the resulting estimators are studied and contrasted with some other competing estimators. A simulation study is carried out comparing the recent estimator based on the Poisson weights (Chaubey et al., 2011) showing that the two estimators have comparable finite sample global as well as local behavior. 相似文献

In this article, we introduce a new two-parameter estimator by grafting the contraction estimator into the modified ridge estimator proposed by Swindel (1976). This new two-parameter estimator is a general estimator which includes the ordinary least squares, the ridge, the Liu, and the contraction estimators as special cases. Furthermore, by setting restrictions Rβ = r on the parameter values we introduce a new restricted two-parameter estimator which includes the well-known restricted least squares, the restricted ridge proposed by Groß (2003), the restricted contraction estimators, and a new restricted Liu estimator which we call the modified restricted Liu estimator different from the restricted Liu estimator proposed by Kaç?ranlar et al. (1999). We also obtain necessary and sufficient condition for the superiority of the new two-parameter estimator over the ordinary least squares estimator and the comparison of the new restricted two-parameter estimator to the new two-parameter estimator is done by the criterion of matrix mean square error. The estimators of the biasing parameters are given and a simulation study is done for the comparison as well as the determination of the biasing parameters. 相似文献

We consider non-parametric estimation of a continuous cdf of a random vector (X 1, X 2). With bivariate RC data, it is stated in van der Laan (1996, p. 59810, Ann. Statist.), Quale et al. (2006, JASA) etc. that “it is well known that the NPMLE for continuous data is inconsistent (Tsai et al. (1986)).” The claim is based on a result in Tsai et al. (1986, p.1352, Ann. Statist.) that if X 1 is right censored but not X 2, then common ways for defining one NPMLE lead to inconsistency. If X 1 is right censored and X 2 is type I right-censored (which includes the case in Tsai et al.), we present a consistent NPMLE. The result corrects a common misinterpretation of Tsai's example (Tsai et al., 1986, Ann. Statist.). 相似文献

In some real situations the population of interest is divided into two groups, of which one contains only a few units. In other cases, the population may be considered as subdivided into two group', for example, if only a few units display a value of the variable of interest which is highly different from zero, while all the other units show a value equal to or near zero. In both cases, inverse sampling is more efficient than classical fixed sample-size designs to obtain the parameter estimators for the whole population as well as for its groups (e.g., Salehi and Seber, 2004). In fact, in this design the procedure selection continues until a prefixed number of units with the characteristic of interest is sampled. Since it is not known a priori to which group the population units belong, the sample size is a random variable. Christman and Lan (2001) and Salehi and Seber (2001 2004) considered inverse sampling designs when all the population units have equal selection probabilities. In this article, we consider the general case in which the units may have unequal probabilities of being included in the sample. In fact, in many real situations different units may have different selection probabilities because of some inherent features of the sampling procedure, or in order to obtain better estimates. We derive unbiased estimators of the totals of the two groups, their variance and the corresponding unbiased variance estimators in inverse sampling with replacement. Finally, we derive similar results for more complex designs, where the selection procedure stops before observing the prefixed number of units from the rare group. 相似文献

This paper addresses the problem of estimating a general parameter using information on an auxiliary variable X. We have suggested a class of exponential-type ratio estimators for the parameter and its properties are studied. It is identified that the estimators due to Upadhyaya et al. [Journal of Statistical Theory and Practice (2011), 5(2), 285–302] and Yadav and Kadilar [Revista Columbiana de Estadistica, (2013), 36(1), 145–152] are members of the proposed estimator. We have also shown that the suggested estimator is more efficient than the estimators of Upadhyaya et al. (2011) and Yadav and Kadilar (2013). Numerical illustration is provided in support of the present study. 相似文献

Ratio-Cum-Product Type Exponential Estimator of Finite Population Mean in Stratified Random Sampling
Rajesh Tailor 《统计学通讯:理论与方法》2014,43(2):343-354
This article addresses the problem of estimating the finite population mean in stratified random sampling using auxiliary information. Motivated by Singh (1967) and Bahl and Tuteja (1991) a ratio-cum-product type exponential estimator has been suggested and its bias and mean squared error have been derived under large sample approximation. Suggested estimator has been compared with usual unbiased estimator of population mean in stratified random sampling, combined ratio estimator, combined product estimator, ratio and product type exponential estimator of Singh et al. (2008). Conditions under which suggested estimator is more efficient than other considered estimators have been obtained. A numerical illustration is given in support of the theoretical findings. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThe article suggests a class of estimators of population mean in stratified random sampling using auxiliary information with its properties. In addition, various known estimators/classes of estimators are identified as members of the suggested class. It has been shown that the suggested class of estimators under optimum condition performs better than the usual unbiased, usual combined ratio, usual combined regression, Kadilar and Cingi (2005), Singh and Vishwakarma (2006) estimators and the members belonging to the classes of estimators envisaged by Kadilar and Cingi (2003), Singh, Tailor et al. (2008), Singh et al. (2009), Singh and Vishwakarma (2010) and Koyuncu and Kadilar (2010). 相似文献

In this article, we consider the estimation of distribution function for one modified form of current status data. An inverse-probability-weighted (IPW) estimator and a self-consistent estimator (SCE) are proposed. The asymptotic properties of the IPW estimator are derived. A simulation study is conducted to compare the performances among the IPW estimator, SCE, and the product-limit estimator proposed by Patilea and Rolin (2006). Simulation results indicate that when right censoring is light and left censoring is heavy, both IPW estimator and SCE can outperform the product-limit estimator. The performances of the IPW estimator and SCE are close to each other. 相似文献

Sanaullah et al. (2014) have suggested generalized exponential chain ratio estimators under stratified two-phase sampling scheme for estimating the finite population mean. However, the bias and mean square error (MSE) expressions presented in that work need some corrections, and consequently the study based on efficiency comparison also requires corrections. In this article, we revisit Sanaullah et al. (2014) estimator and provide the correct bias and MSE expressions of their estimator. We also propose an estimator which is more efficient than several competing estimators including the classes of estimators in Sanaullah et al. (2014). Three real datasets are used for efficiency comparisons. 相似文献

This article suggests random and fixed effects spatial two-stage least squares estimators for the generalized mixed regressive spatial autoregressive panel data model. This extends the generalized spatial panel model of Baltagi et al. (2013) by the inclusion of a spatial lag term. The estimation method utilizes the Generalized Moments method suggested by Kapoor et al. (2007) for a spatial autoregressive panel data model. We derive the asymptotic distributions of these estimators and suggest a Hausman test a la Mutl and Pfaffermayr (2011) based on the difference between these estimators. Monte Carlo experiments are performed to investigate the performance of these estimators as well as the corresponding Hausman test. 相似文献

Przystalski and Krajewski (2007) proposed the restricted backfitting (RBCF) estimator and restricted Speckman (RSPC) estimator for the treatment effects in a partially linear model when some additional exact linear restrictions are assumed to hold. In this article, we introduce the preliminary test backfitting (PTBCF) estimator and preliminary test Speckman (PTSPC) estimator when the validity of the restrictions is suspected. Performances of the proposed estimators are examined with respect to the mean squared error (MSE) criterion. In addition, numerical behaviors of the proposed estimators are illustrated and compared via a Monte Carlo simulation study. 相似文献

In this paper, we investigate the effect of pre-smoothing on model selection. Christóbal et al 6 showed the beneficial effect of pre-smoothing on estimating the parameters in a linear regression model. Here, in a regression setting, we show that smoothing the response data prior to model selection by Akaike's information criterion can lead to an improved selection procedure. The bootstrap is used to control the magnitude of the random error structure in the smoothed data. The effect of pre-smoothing on model selection is shown in simulations. The method is illustrated in a variety of settings, including the selection of the best fractional polynomial in a generalized linear model. 相似文献

This paper presents a new variable weight method, called the singular value decomposition (SVD) approach, for Kohonen competitive learning (KCL) algorithms based on the concept of Varshavsky et al. [18]. Integrating the weighted fuzzy c-means (FCM) algorithm with KCL, in this paper, we propose a weighted fuzzy KCL (WFKCL) algorithm. The goal of the proposed WFKCL algorithm is to reduce the clustering error rate when data contain some noise variables. Compared with the k-means, FCM and KCL with existing variable-weight methods, the proposed WFKCL algorithm with the proposed SVD's weight method provides a better clustering performance based on the error rate criterion. Furthermore, the complexity of the proposed SVD's approach is less than Pal et al. [17], Wang et al. [19] and Hung et al. [9]. 相似文献
