The estimators integrate a logarithmic transformation of the auxiliary variable to stabilize variance, reduce the influence of outliers, and better capture nonlinear relationships between study and auxiliary variables. We derive closed-form expressions for first-order bias and mean squared error (MSE) and obtain analytic expressions for the optimal tuning constants by direct minimization of the approximate MSE. A comprehensive numerical study, comprising five real engineering datasets and extensive Monte-Carlo simulations from multivariate normal, log-normal and gamma populations, evaluates finite-sample behavior across a range of sample sizes and correlation structures. The proposed estimators consistently reduce MSE and deliver large percent-relative-efficiency (PRE) gains relative to the classical sample mean and common competitors (empirical PREs ≈ 283; simulation PREs up to ≈ 670), with especially large and stable improvements under skewed or heavy-tailed populations. Theoretical formulas and simulation evidence align closely, showing robustness to nonlinearity and skewness while retaining simple implementation for practitioners. Results are derived under SRSWOR using first-order approximations; extensions to higher-order corrections, stratified and two-phase designs, and uncertainty in auxiliary means are recommended for future work.  \nKeywords Estimation, Auxiliary information, Bias, Efficiency, Logarithmic Estimator, PRE, Ratio Estimator, Simple Random Sampling  \nList of symbols  \nNn  \nS2y S2x sy x Cy Cx Cy x αandβ e0 , e1  \nSize of the population  \nSize of the sample Variance of y  \nVariance of x Covariance  \nCoefficient of variation (y)  \nCoefficient of variation (x) Coefficient of covariance x, y Generalizing constants  \nRelative error in ¯y = ¯yµyy~~ ~~ and ¯x = ~~¯~~xµx~~x~~ respectively  \n1Department of Statistics, University Peshawar, Peshawar, KP, Pakistan. 2Higher Education, Archives and Libraries Department, Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Peshawar, Pakistan. 3Department of Mathematics, College of Science, Jouf University, 72388 Sakaka, Saudi Arabia. 4Department of Software Engineering, Faculty of Computer Science, Sayed Jamaluddin Afghani University(SJAU), Asadabad, Kunar, Afghanistan. 5Center for Scientific Research and Entrepreneurship, Northern Border University, 73213 Arar, Saudi Arabia. 􀀍 email: [bilalhimmat@sjau.edu.af](bilalhimmat@sjau.edu.af); [Khaled_kefi@yahoo.fr](Khaled_kefi@yahoo.fr)  \n[www. nature.com/scientificreports/](www. nature.com/scientificreports/)  \nS2y S2x ρyx ¯  \nY ¯  \nX Rf  \nTln1  \nTln2  \nk1 , k2 , k3 , k4  \nPopulation variance of (y)  \nPopulation variance of (x) Population correlation coefficient Mean of the population of y Population Mean ofx Population ratios  \nSampling fraction  \nFirst proposed estimator Second proposed estimator Optimizing constants  \nAccurate estimation of population means from sampled data lies at the heart of survey statistics and many applied fields, from official statistics and environmental monitoring to engineering quality control and experimental sciences1.
