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 ...
GENERALISED MODEL BASED CONFIDENCE INTERVALS IN TWO STAGE CLUSTER SAMPLING
(Pakistan Journal of Statistics and Operation Research, 2010)
Chambers and Dorfman (2002) constructed bootstrap confidence intervals in model based estimation for finite population totals assuming that auxiliary values are available throughout a target population and that the auxiliary ...
Comparison of the ratio estimate to the local linear polynomial estimate of finite population totals
(International Journals of Multidisciplinary Research Academy, 2013)
In this paper, attempt to study effects of extreme observations on two estimators of finite population total theoretically and by simulation is made. We compare the ratio estimate with the local linear polynomial estimate ...
Nonparametric mixed ratio estimator for a finite population total in stratified sampling
(Pakistan Journal of Statistics and Operation Research, 2010)
We propose a nonparametric regression approach to the estimation of a finite population total in model based frameworks in the case of stratified sampling. Similar work has been done, by Nadaraya and Watson (1964), Hansen ...
Variance Estimation in Stratified Random Sampling in the Presence of Two Auxiliary Random Variables
(International Journal of Science and Research, 2014)
The objective of this paper is to develop an improved population variance estimators in the presence of two auxiliary
variables in stratified random sampling adapting the family of estimators proposed by Koyunchu and ...
Effects of outliers on Estimation of Finite Population Totals
(International Journals of Multidisciplinary Research Academy, 2013)
In this paper, attempt to study effects of outliers on two estimators of finite population total theoretically and by simulation is made. We compare the ratio estimate with the local linear polynomial estimate of finite ...
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 ...
