Asymptotics of Bayesian median loss estimation
We establish the consistency, asymptotic normality, and efficiency for estimators derived by minimizing the median of a loss function in a Bayesian context. We contrast this procedure with the behavior of two Frequentist procedures, the least median of squares (LMS) and the least trimmed squares (LTS) estimators, in regression problems. The LMS estimator is the Frequentist version of our estima...
متن کاملTHE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA DEPARTMENT OF STATISTICS TECHNICAL REPORT # 243 Asymptotics of Bayesian Median Loss Estimation By Chi
Here we define estimators based on minimizing the median of a loss function in the Bayesian context. For these estimators, we establish √ n-consistency, asymptotic normality and efficiency. We contrast the asymptotic behavior of these medloss estimators with the n asymptotic behavior of the least median of squares (LMS) estimators and the least trimmed squares (LTS) estimators which are √ n-con...
متن کاملTapered Covariance: Bayesian Estimation and Asymptotics
The method of maximum tapered likelihood has been proposed as a way to quickly estimate covariance parameters for stationary Gaussian random fields. We show that under a useful asymptotic regime, maximum tapered likelihood estimators are consistent and asymptotically normal for covariance models in common use. We then formalize the notion of tapered quasi-Bayesian estimators and show that they ...
متن کاملBayesian Estimation of Shift Point in Shape Parameter of Inverse Gaussian Distribution Under Different Loss Functions
In this paper, a Bayesian approach is proposed for shift point detection in an inverse Gaussian distribution. In this study, the mean parameter of inverse Gaussian distribution is assumed to be constant and shift points in shape parameter is considered. First the posterior distribution of shape parameter is obtained. Then the Bayes estimators are derived under a class of priors and using variou...
متن کاملBayesian Estimation for the Pareto Income Distribution under Asymmetric LINEX Loss Function
The use of the Pareto distribution as a model for various socio-economic phenomena dates back to the late nineteenth century. In this paper, after some necessary preliminary results we deal with Bayes estimation of some of the parameters of interest under an asymmetric LINEX loss function, using suitable choice of priors when the scale parameter is known and unknown. Results of a Monte C...
