On some novel classes of estimators using ranked set sampling

Abstract

This study introduces some novel classes of estimators using ranked set sampling to evaluate the population mean utilizing additional information on an auxiliary variable. The suggested classes of estimators include mostly prominent estimators and are found to be more efficient regarding the other existing estimators available till date. The efficiency conditions are derived under which the discussed novel estimators dominate over the existing estimators. Further, to justify the propositions of this article, a computational study is executed utilizing some real and hypothetically produced populations and the results are found to be the rather satisfactory showing improvement over all the discussed works.
