In this study, we investigate various estimates of a population size based on multiple observations obtained from a 'capture-mark-recapture' experiment. We evaluate the estimates in terms of standardized bias (SBias) and standardized mean squared error (SMSE). Numerical results are provided to demonstrate the applicability of our proposed methods.
