Bias Reduction for Bayesian and Frequentist Estimators
We show that in parametric likelihood models the first order bias in the posterior mode and the posterior mean can be removed using objective Bayesian priors. These bias-reducing priors are defined as the solution to a set of differential equations which may not be available in closed form. We provide a simple and tractable data dependent prior that solves the differential equations asymptotica...
متن کاملFrequentist Optimality of Bayes Factor Estimators in Wavelet Regression Models
We investigate the theoretical performance of Bayes factor estimators in wavelet regression models with independent and identically distributed errors that are not necessarily normally distributed. We compare these estimators in terms of their frequentist optimality in Besov spaces for a wide variety of error and prior distributions. Furthermore, we provide sufficient conditions that determine ...
متن کاملAsymptotic Equivalence of Estimators of Average Derivatives
This paper establishes the asymptotic equivalence among four semiparametric sample analog estimators of average derivatives of a regression function and their corresponding slope or ratio-of-moments estimators. 1 Thanks to Margarida Genius, Lung-Fei Lee and seminar participants at the University of Michigan for helpful comments.
متن کاملThe Ratio-type Estimators of Variance with Minimum Average Square Error
The ratio-type estimators have been introduced for estimating the mean and total population, but in recent years based on the ratio methods several estimators for population variance have been proposed. In this paper two families of estimators have been suggested and their approximation mean square error (MSE) have been developed. In addition, the efficiency of these variance estimators are com...
متن کاملComparison of the frequentist properties of Bayes and the maximum likelihood estimators in an age- structured fish stock assessment model
A simulation study was carried out for a separable fish stock assessment model including commercial and survey catch-at-age and effort data. All catches are considered stochastic variables subject to sampling and process variations. The results showed that the Bayes estimator of spawning biomass is a useful but slightly biased estimator for which the frequentist variance can be estimated by the...
