To obtain the best estimates of the unknown population parameters have been the key theme of the statisticians. In the present paper we have suggested some estimators which estimate the population parameters efficiently. In short we propose a ratio, product, and regression estimators using two auxiliary variables, when there are some maximum and minimum values of the study and auxiliary variables, respectively. The properties of the proposed strategies in terms of mean square errors (variances) are derived up to first order of approximation. Also the performance of the proposed estimators have shown theoretically and these theoretical conditions are verified numerically by taking four real data sets under which the proposed class of estimators performed better than the other previous works.

Theoretical Results

In this article, we propose an estimator using the exponential function for the population mean in the case of non-response on both the study and the auxiliary variables. The equations for the Bias and Mean Square Error (MSE) are derived to the first order of approximation and theoretical comparisons are made with existing estimators in literature. Besides, we examine the efficiency of the proposed estimator according to the classical ratio and regression estimator, Hansen-Hurwitz unbiased estimator, and the estimator of Singh et al. (2009). Following theoretical comparisons, we infer that the proposed estimator is more efficient than compared estimators under the obtained conditions in theory. Moreover, these theoretical results are supported numerically by providing an empirical study on five different data sets.

A generalized estimator representing a class of estimators for the estimation of ratio and product of population parameters has been proposed. A sub­class of optimum estimators from the proposed class has been investigated and it has been shown that every member of the sub­class has the same minimum mean square error. Further the optimum value (depending upon population parameters) when replaced from sample values gives the estimators having the minimum mean square errors of the optimum estimators.

In this paper, we have suggested a class of ratio type estimators with a linear combination using two auxiliary variables with some known population mean of the study variable. The bias and the mean square error of the proposed estimators are derived. We identified sub-members of the class of ratio type estimators. The condition for which the the proposed the proposed estimators perform better than the sample mean per unit, Olkin (1958) multivariate ratio, classical linear regression estimator, Singh(1965), Mohanty (1967) and Swain (2012) are derived. From the analysis, it is observed that the proposed estimators perform better than the sample mean per unit and other existing ratio type estimators considered in this study.

Generalized Chain ratio in regression type estimator is efficient for estimating the population mean. Many authors have derived a Generalized Chain ratio in regression type estimator. However, the computation of its Mean Square Error (MSE) is cumbersome based on the fact that several iterations have to be done, hence the need for a modified generalized chain ratio in regression estimator with lower MSE. This study proposed a modified generalized chain ratio in regression estimator which is less cumbersome in its computation. Two data sets were used in this study. The first data were on tobacco production by tobacco producing countries with yield of tobacco (variable of interest), area of land and production in metric tonnes as the auxiliary variables. The second data were the number of graduating pupils (variable of interest) in Ado-Odo/Ota local government, Ogun state with the number of enrolled pupils in primaries one and five as the auxiliary variables. The mean square errors in the existing and proposed estimators for various values of alpha were derived and relative efficiency was determined. The MSE for the existing estimator of tobacco production gave six values 0.0080, 0.0079, 0.0080, 0.0082, 0.0087 and 0.0093 with 0.0079 as the minimum while the proposed estimator gave 0.0054. The MSEs for the existing estimator for the graduating pupils were 20.73, 11.08, 7.49, 9.96, 18.50 and 33.10 with 7.49 as the minimum while the proposed was 6.52. The results of this study showed that the proposed estimator gave lower MSE for the two data sets, hence it is more efficient.

We suggest an estimator using two auxiliary variables for the estimation of the unknown population variance. The bias and the mean square error of the proposed estimator are obtained to the first order of approximations. In addition, the problem is extended to two-phase sampling scheme. After theoretical comparisons, as an illustration, a numerical comparison is carried out to examine the performance of the suggested estimator with several estimators.

A chain ratio-type estimator is proposed for the estimation of finite population mean under systematic sampling scheme using two auxiliary variables. The mean square error of the proposed estimator is derived up to the first order of approximation and is compared with other relevant existing estimators. To illustrate the performances of the different estimators in comparison with the usual simple estimator, we have taken a real data set from the literature of survey sampling.

For estimating the mean of a finite population, Srivastava and Jhajj (1981) defined a broad class of estimators which we information of the sample mean as well as the sample variance of an auxiliary variable. In this paper we extend this class of estimators to the case when such information on p(> 1) auxiliary variables is available. The estimators of the class involve unknown constants whose optimum values depend on unknown population parameters. When these population parameters are replaced by their consistent estimates, the resulting estimators are shown to have the same asymptotic mean squared error. An expression by which the mean squared error of such estimators is smaller than those which use only the population means of the auxiliary variables, is obtained.

In this article, we introduce a new distribution called the McDonald Erlangtruncated exponential distribution. Various structural properties including explicit expressions for the moments, moment generating function, mean deviation of the new distribution are derived. The estimation of the model parameters is performed by maximum likelihood method. The usefulness of the new distribution is illustrated by two real data sets. The new model is much better than other important competitive models in modeling relief times and survival times data sets.

The main objective of the present study was to develop a new ridge regression estimator and fit the ridge regression model to the peanut production data of Pakistan. Peanut production data has been used to analyze the results. The data has been taken peanut production and growth rate of Pakistan. The mean square error of the proposed estimator is compared with some existing ridge regression estimators. In this study, we proposed a ridge regression estimator. The properties of proposed estimators are also discussed. The real data set of peanut production is used for assuming the performance of proposed and existing estimators. Numerical results of real data set show that proposed ridge regression estimator provides best results as compare to reviewed ones.
