Ranked set sampling (RSS) is an approach to data collection and analysis that continues to
stimulate substantial methodological research. It has spawned a number of related …

Complex multivariate testing problems are frequently encountered in many scientific
disciplines, such as engineering, medicine and the social sciences. As a result, modern …

This monograph is the first book-length exposition of ranked set sampling. But, the subject
matter is by no means new. The original notion of ranked set sampling, though not the …

The problem of estimating the population mean is considered by McIntyre (1952). A new
sampling method is suggested, namely; ranked set sampling (RSS) as efficient method …

In this chapter, we provide an up-to-date overview of nonparametric Shewhart-type
univariate control charts. The monitoring schemes incorporated in the present literature …

In this paper, ranked set sampling is proposed for constructing a non-parametric quality
control chart based on sign statistic for monitoring the process center when the units are …

This paper develops statistical inference for population quantiles based on a partially rank-
ordered set (PROS) sample design. A PROS sample design is similar to a ranked set …

A Bayesian approach to the joint estimation of population proportion and sensitivity level of a
stigmatizing attribute is proposed by adopting a two-stage randomized response procedure …

Considering situations where units are expensive to measure but can be ordered relatively
cheaply or at no cost without actual measurements of the units under investigation. McIntyre …

Bivariate rank set sample (BVRSS) matched pair sign test is introduced and investigated for
different ranking based schemes. We show that this test is asymptotically more efficient and …
