  20. Numerical Comparisons • Data sets and statistics

  21. Members of the proposed family of estimators

  22. Mean Square Errors of theEstimators

  23. Conclusion • We suggest new median estimators using a known constant. • We theoretically show that these estimators are always more efficient than classical estimators. • In the numerical examples, the theoretical results are also supported. • In future works, we hope to adapt the estimators proposed in this study to stratified random sampling.
