Logarithmic Estimation Procedures for Population Mean in Two-Phase Sampling
Abstract
In this paper an attempt is taken to introduce a new estimator using logarithmic function structure. We have proposed logarithmic ratio type estimator which is consistent and in general biased. The estimator is applied in two-phase sampling situation - the features of the suggested estimator are derived and studied for its optimum condition. The ascendancy of the suggested estimator over the conventional ones has been justified through numerical illustrations carried over the data set of natural population and software generated population. Encouraged with the outcomes of the proposed estimator and strategy, it has been suggested to the survey statisticians for future use.

PDFDisclaimer/Regarding indexing issue:
We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
