In this article, we introduce the weighted mixed Liu-type estimator (WMLTE) based on the weighted mixed and Liu-type estimator (LTE) in linear regression model. We will also present necessary and sufficient conditions for superiority of the weighted mixed Liu-type estimator over the weighted mixed estimator (WME) and Liu type estimator (LTE) in terms of mean square error matrix (MSEM) criterion. Finally, a numerical example and a Monte Carlo simulation is also given to show the theoretical results.
