(* Correspodig author) Abstract I this article, a estimatio procedure for the populatio variace utilizig auxiliary iformatio ad kow coefficiet of variatio is proposed. The Bias ad mea square error of proposed estimator are foud up to first order of approximatio. A comparative study with the usual ubiased estimator ad usual ratio estimator for populatio variace has bee made. Numerical study is also give at the ed of the article to support the theoretical fidigs. Keywords: Bias, Coefficiet of Variatio, Efficiecy, Mea Square Error, Simple Radom Samplig. 1. INTRODUCTION Sometimes, additioal iformatio o some other variable highly correlated with the characteristic uder study is available. This additioal iformatio is kow as auxiliary or acillary or priori iformatio ad the character o which additioal iformatio is provided kow as auxiliary or acillary character. This auxiliary iformatio may be kow i advace from the past data, pilot survey or from the experiece of the observer. Auxiliary iformatio is used to improve the efficiecy of the estimator. I statistics it is proved that use of auxiliary iformatio i probability samplig cosiderably reduces the variace of the estimator of populatio parameter. Such as i may agricultural surveys for estimatig total productio of

Let the study variable y ad auxiliary variable takig the values Yi ad Xi respectively for the ith (i=1,,..., N) uit of the populatio of size N. Such that N N i=1, Y = 1 Y N i=1 i, X = 1 X N i μ rs = 1 N (X i X ) r (Y i Y ) s C y = σ y Y, β y = μ 0, γ 1y = μ 03 3/ μ 0 μ 0 C x = σ x X, β x = μ 0, γ 1x = μ 30 3/ N σ y = 1 N (Y i Y ) i=1 μ 0 N μ 0, σ x = 1 N (X i X ) Let yi ad xi are the observatio of sample values of study ad auxiliary variables respectively. For estimatig populatio variace the proposed estimator is s yα = s y (x C x α s ) x Where α is the characterizig scalar chose suitably. i=1 (1). BIAS AND MEAN SQUARE ERROR OF PROPOSED ESTIMATOR For the sake of simplicity we are assumig that the populatio size N is large as compared to sample size so that fiite populatio correctio is igored. Let, So that x = X (1 + e 0 ) s y = σ y (1 + e 1 ) s x = σ x (1 + e ) E(e 0 ) = E(e 1 ) = E(e ) = 0
3 Estimatio of Populatio Variace Utilizig Auxiliary Iformatio 305 E(e 0 ) = C x E(e 1 ) = γ y + E(e ) = γ x + E(e 0 e 1 ) = λc x Also, we have E(e 0 e ) = γ 1xC x E(e 1 e ) = δ 1 δ = μ σ x σ, λ = μ 1 y σ x σ, γ x = μ 0 3, γ y = μ 0 3 y From (1), writig s yα i terms of ei s = σ y (1 + e 1 ) (1 αe + μ 0 μ 0 α s yα = σ y (1 + e 1 ) [X (1 + e 0 ) C x σ x (1 + e ) ] +.. ) α(α + 1) e + αe 0 α e 0 e + α(α 1)e 0 (s yα σ y ) = σ y (αe 0 + e 1 αe + α(α 1)e 0 + Takig α e 0 e αe 1 e ) () α(α + 1) e + αe 0 e 1 Expectatio o both sides of (), we get bias up to I st order of approximatio Bias(s yα ) = σ y [αe(e 0 ) + E(e 1 ) αe(e ) + α(α 1)E(e 0 ) + α(α + 1) E(e ) + αe(e 0 e 1 ) α E(e 0 e ) αe(e 1 e )]
4 306 Sheela Misra, Dipika ad Dharmedra Kumar Yadav = σ y α (C x + γ x γ 1x C x + ) σ y (C x λc x γ x + δ ) (3) Now for mea square error squarig ad takig expectatio o both sides of () we get MSE of s yα as MSE(s yα ) = σ y [k E(e 0 ) + E(e 1 ) + k E(e ) + ke(e 0 e 1 ) k E(e 0 e ) ke(e 1 e )] = σ y (γ y + ) + σ y α (C x + γ x + γ 1x C x ) + σ y α(λc x δ + ) () The optimum value of α which miimizes the mea square error of s yα i () is give by α 0 = λc y δ+1 C x γ 1x C x +γ x + (5) The miimum value of mea square error of proposed estimator s yα for α 0 is give by MSE(s yα ) = σ y mi (γ y + ) σ y ( (λc y δ + 1) C x γ 1x C x + γ x + ) (6) 3. THEORETICAL EFFICIENCY COMPARISON (a) Efficiecy compariso of proposed estimator to usual ubiased estimator for populatio variace MSE(s yα ) mi MSE(s y ) < 0 σ y (γ y + ) σ y ( (λc y δ + 1) C x γ 1x C x + γ x + ) σ y (γ y + ) < 0 δ λc x > 1 (7) (b) Efficiecy compariso of proposed estimator with ratio estimator of populatio variace MSE(s yα ) mi MSE(s R ) < 0
5 Estimatio of Populatio Variace Utilizig Auxiliary Iformatio 307 Where, σ y (γ y + ) σ y ( (λc y δ + 1) C x γ 1x C x + γ x + ) σ y [(γ y + ) + (γ x + ) (δ 1)] < 0C > (AB) 1 (8) A = γ 1x C x γ x C x B = γ x δ + 1 C = λc x δ + 1 Proposed estimator is better that usual ubiased estimator of populatio variace ad ratio estimator if the data follows the coditios defied i (7) ad (8) respectively.. ILLUSTRATION For the umerical compariso betwee proposed estimator to sample variace ad ratio estimator, we cosider the data give i Cochra (1977, page 181) dealig with paralytic polio cases placebo (y) group, computatio of required values have bee doe ad we have, Y =.588, X =.9, σ y = 9.890, σ x =.639, C x = β 1y =.318, β y =.337, β 1x = 3.9, β x = γ 1y = 1.5, γ y = 1.337, γ 1x = 1.981, γ x = 3.391, δ = 3.85, λ = 1.11 Table 1: MSE s of Estimator Estimators Mea Square Error MSE(s y ) MSE(s R ) MSE(s yα ) mi 6.757
