    On Local Linear Regression Estimation in Sampling Surveys
    (Far East Journal of Theoretical Statistics, 2017) Kikechi, Conlet B.; Simwa, Richard Onyino ; Pokhariyal, Ganesh P.
    A model based survey is employed to estimate the unknown values of the survey variable, using the local linear regression approach. In particular, a local linear regression estimator in model based surveys is studied. Variance comparisons are made between the derived estimator and the Nadaraya-Watson regression estimator which show that the two estimators are asymptotically equivalently efficient
