Bias Reduction Technique for Estimating Finite Population Distribution Function under Simple Random Sampling without Replacement.
(International Journal of Statistics and Applications, 2018)
The problem of nonparametric estimation of finite population distribution function using multiplicative bias correction technique is considered in this paper. A robust estimator of the finite population distribution function ...
Nonparametric estimation of distribution function for stratified populations
(International Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2018)
Nonparametric estimation of population parameters for finite populations has been used with great success for
data that fit the independent and identically distributed framework. However, most of these approaches do not ...
Inference on poverty indicators for Ghana
(2018-09-14)
Poverty indicators are the fundamental statistics used to optimally determine the standards of living of people in any country. These are used for policy planing and analysis. Poverty indicators were estimated using ...
A SEMI-PARAMETRIC MULTIPLICATIVE BIAS REDUCTION DENSITY WITH A PARAMETRIC START
(Pushpa Publishing House, 2018)
In this study, a multiplicative semiparametric fourth order bias reduction density is proposed. The proposed density accommodates all parametric distributions and produces optimum results even in situations where the ...
Variance Estimation for Poverty Indicators via Linearization Technique
(2018-08-24)
In this study, an assessment of precision of poverty indicators is made with a view to improving its performance. A multiplicative bias reduction density function is used in estimating the poverty indicators and compared ...
Robust Estimation of Finite Population Totals Using a Model Based Approach in the Presence of Two Auxiliary Variables
(International Journal of Data Science and Analysis, 2018)
The utilization of auxiliary information during surveys increases the accuracy of estimators, thereby giving more
reliable estimates of the population parameters of interest. It has been established that the presence of ...
