Abstract

In the current work, a novel estimator for estimating population variance has been proposed, employing the available information of the median of the supplementary variate specifically regarding the simple random sampling (SRS) technique. The characteristics of a recently introduced estimator have been observed while utilizing a large sample approximation. It is evaluated both theoretically and empirically by comparison with other well-known estimators of the population variance.
