Dual Transformation of Auxiliary Variables by Using Outliers in Stratified Random Sampling
MathematicsTo estimate the finite population variance of the study variable, this paper proposes an improved class of efficient estimators using different transformations. When both the minimum and maximum values of the auxiliary variable are known and the ranks of
