Estimation of the population mean under assumptions of non-informativeness of labels in a two stage finite population of distinguishable units has been studied. Under the random permutation model, for the two stage set up, sample mean, the natural estimator, is found to be the best.
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.
