Abstract: In order to improve the estimation efficiency of mean life for random truncated data, a nonparametric estimator based on ranked set sampling is proposed by adopting the idea of average rank. Its asymptotic normality is proved, and its asymptotic variance is identified. According to compare the new estimator with the corresponding estimator under simple random sampling, ranked set sampling is shown to be more efficient than simple random sampling. Finally, the application results of practical data verify the correctness of the theoretical results.
