Double extreme-cum-median ranked set sampling.

ABSTRACT: Extreme-cum-median ranked set sampling has been developed to address the problem of heterogeneity and outliers / extreme values. Double ranked set sampling has been suggested to obtain more reliable samples using the concept of degree of distinguishability. Dealing with heterogeneous and non-normal populations seems to be an area with a dearth of research. This article endeavors to address this research gap by introducing a new, improved ranked set sampling procedure that combines the aforementioned approaches, which is called double extreme-cum-median ranked set sampling. A simulation study for some symmetric and asymmetric probability distributions has been conducted. The results show that the newly proposed scheme performs better than its competitors under perfect and imperfect ranking,
