Log-ratio type estimation for the finite population mean under simple random sampling without replacement with theory, simulation and application

We propose two novel logarithmic ratio–type estimators for the finite-population mean under simple random sampling without replacement (SRSWOR). The estimators integrate a logarithmic transformation ...

The Fundamental Concept

Consider a population of 70 individuals, for which you wish to estimate the mean annual income, μ. Assume that you have decided to use the following estimation procedure to make your estimate: simple ...

An efficient logarithmic estimator in stratified random sampling using single auxiliary variable

This paper proposes a novel logarithmic-type estimator for the estimation of the population mean under stratified random sampling when a single auxiliary variable is available. By employing a ...
