Beta Kernel Estimator for a Cumulative Distribution Function with Bounded Support [PDF]
Kernel estimation of the cumulative distribution function (CDF), when the support of the data is bounded, suffers from bias at the boundaries. To solve this problem, we introduce a new estimator for the CDF with support (0,1) based on the beta kernel ...

Estimation of average treatment effect based on a multi-index propensity score
Background Estimating the average effect of a treatment, exposure, or intervention on health outcomes is a primary aim of many medical studies. However, unbalanced covariates between groups can lead to confounding bias when using observational data to ...

Study of Dual to Ratio-Cum-Product Estimator of Finite Population Mean under Double Sampling in Sample Surveys [PDF]
A class of estimator based on dual to ratio and dual to product-type estimator in double sampling for estimating finite population mean is proposed. The bias and mean square error of the proposed estimator are obtained in two different cases.

A new exponential estimator for finite population mean under double sampling using one auxiliary variable [PDF]
This paper proposes an exponential estimator of a population mean under double sampling using one auxiliary variable. The proposed estimator is modified from the estimator of Khatua and Misha (2013) and Ozgul and Cingi (2014).
