Abstract:

In this paper, we introduce new nine estimators of finite population variance out of which five are supported by the idea of Tuned Ratio Unbiased Mean Predictor (TRUMP) when the value of the TRUMP Care Coefficient is in power and is known from the First Basic Information (FBI) available from the past experience or simulation studies. Then we compare ten estimators, which include the familial estimator of the same family, of the finite population variance with the naive estimator through simulation studies. The TRUMP is found to be a supporter of five family members. To learn more about the five family members, attend the talk!!
