Abstract

The superiority of Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) models is measured by the comparison of the Mean Square Errors of the models with respect to their alternatives. The expressions support general evaluations of the gains in accuracy but their values depend on the underlying distribution or the characteristics of the studied population. We present some numerical studies for illustrating the behavior of RSS strategies.

Numbers speak all the languages.
