Present investigation deals with the problem of optimum stratification on the auxiliary variable for equal allocation when method of selection of units in individual strata is done by ranked set sampling (RSS). A ) ( 4 x K cum rule of obtaining approximate optimum strata boundaries has been developed by minimizing the variance and solution of minimal equations thereof. A numerical analysis on the basis of percent relative efficiency has also been made, which indicated remarkable gain in efficiency.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
