摘要
Ranked set sampling as suggested by McIntyre (1952, Journal of Agricultural Research 3, 385-390) and Takahasi and Wakimoto (1968, Annals of the Institute of Statistical Mathematics 20, 1-31) may be combined with size-biased probability of selection. We assume that the natural first-phase sample is collected with probability of selection proportional to size for each unit. The objective is then to use the ranked set sampling procedure to obtain a second-phase sample and increase the efficiency of estimators relative to simple random sampling. Estimators of the population mean and the population size are considered. Computer simulated results are given, and an example using line-intercept sampling of vegetation is provided to illustrate computations. Finally, ranked set sampling with errors in ranking is considered with probability of selection proportional to size.
