Vinay Kumar Yadav; Shakti Prasad – Measurement: Interdisciplinary Research and Perspectives, 2024
In sample survey analysis, accurate population mean estimation is an important task, but traditional approaches frequently ignore the intricacies of real-world data, leading to biassed results. In order to handle uncertainties, indeterminacies, and ambiguity, this work presents an innovative approach based on neutrosophic statistics. We proposed…
