A ranked-set sample signed-rank statistic

Journal of Nonparametric Statistics, 1998
A procedure analogous to the Wilcoxon signed-rank test is developed for settings in which ranked-set samples are used in place of simple random samples. The ranked-set sample statistic is shown to be distribution-free and to have a symmetric null distribution. The statistic is a linear combination of U-statistics, so U-statistics results can be used to

U-Statistics and imperfect ranking in ranked set sampling

Journal of Nonparametric Statistics, 1999
Ranked set sampling has attracted considerable attention as an efficient sampling design, particularly for environmental and ecological studies. A number of authors have noted a gain in efficiency over ordinary random sampling when specific estimators and tests of hypotheses are applied to rank set sample data.

Estimation of Ratio Using Rank Set Sampling

Biometrical Journal, 1996
AbstractRanked set sampling (RSS) as suggested by McIntyre (1952) and developed by Takahasi and Wakimoto (1968) is used to estimate the ratio. It is proved that by using RSS method the efficiency of the estimator relative to the simple random sampling (SRS) method has increased. Computer simulated results are given.

Bayesian Estimation Using Ranked Set Sampling

Biometrical Journal, 2000
Summary: Bayesian estimation of the parameter of a distribution is considered using ranked set sampling (RSS). It is shown that for at least one RSS plan, the Bayes estimator has smaller Bayes risk than the Bayes estimator using simple random sampling (SRS).

The ‘Bayesics’ of Ranked Set Sampling

Environmental and Ecological Statistics, 1999
Ranked set sampling can be useful when measurements are expensive but units from the popu- lation can be easily ranked. In this situation one may draw k units from the population, rank them, select one on which to make the expensive measurement, draw another k units, rank them, select one, and so on.

Stratified ranked set sample

2010
Summary: Stratified simple random sampling (SSRS) is used in certain types of surveys because it combines the conceptual simplicity of simple random sampling (SRS) with potentially significant gains in efficiency. It is a convenient technique to use whenever we wish to ensure that our sample is representative of the population and also to obtain ...

5 Ranked set sampling

1994
Abstract McIntyre (1952) proposed a method of sampling to estimate mean pasture yields with greater efficiency than simple random sampling. This method of sampling has come to be known as ranked set sampling (RSS) because it involves a preliminary ranking of randomly selected units from the population, after which only a certain few of these ...
