Abstract: In this article, we have obtained several point estimators for the estimation of the scale parameters in Morgenstern type bivariate uniform distribution (MTBUD) using censored ranked set sampling. We have also suggested some linear shrinkage estimators of scale parameter of Morgenstern type bivariate uniform distribution (MTBUD). Efficiency comparisons are also made in this work.

Keywords: Best linear unbiased estimator, censored ranked set sampling, minimum mean squared error estimator, Morgenstern type bivariate uniform distribution, shrinkage estimator
