Abstract:
|
Calibration is a technique which improves the precision of the estimates of population parameters by using the auxiliary information. In the current investigation, the problem of estimation of population mean in strati?ed random sampling has been developed by a new calibration technique. It has been shown through simulation studies, the proposed resultant estimators are more ef?cient than the combined ratio estimator as well as the combined regression estimator.
