Re: [R] Ranked Set Sampling
Thanks to all who took the time to write. I have done my job of searching before posting the query, I am a graduate of Western Michigan University and Joe McKean is my adviser and studied his book Robust Nonparametric Statistical Methods as Robust class textbook. THERE IS NOTHING there that discuss Ranked Set Sampling. The paper published by Jeff Terpstra who is Joe McKean Student graduated 1997 DOES NOT DEAL WITH RANKED SET SAMPLING. Peter I thought at least one in the whole world would know something about RSS, thats why I put the query to the list, I did not expect somebody to ask what is Ranked Set Sampling, because a google of Ranked Set Sampling will produce many papers, I could not find an R package that has a piece that calculates mean or variance from a ranked set sample. The conclusion is to ask a person who wrote a paper directly for a code. If I get one I will share it provided the author agree to that.
