Abstract
This paper proposes two classes of robust ratio type estimators of finite population mean and two classes of robust ratio type estimators of finite population variance using a single auxiliary variable under the adaptive cluster sampling design. Seven robust ratio type estimators have been developed from each class. The generalized expressions of bias and mean square error for each class have been derived up to the first order of approximation. The exact expressions of bias and MSE for all the developed estimators have been presented. Using simulation studies conducted in R programming, the high efficiency of all the developed estimators over similar existing estimators in adaptive cluster sampling has been demonstrated. . KEYWORDS :Adaptive cluster sampling, Classes of robust ratio type estimators, Hidden clustered data, Estimation of mean, Estimation of variance.
