Bayes’ estimators of generalized entropies
The order-q Tsallis (Hq ) and Rényi entropy (Kq ) receive broad applications in the statistical analysis of complex phenomena. A generic problem arises, however, when these entropies need to be estimated from observed data. The finite size of data sets can lead to serious systematic and statistical errors in numerical estimates. In this paper, we focus upon the problem of estimating generalized...
متن کاملMultivariate generalized S-estimators
In this paper we introduce generalized S-estimators for the multivariate regression model. This class of estimators combines high robustness and high efficiency. They are defined by minimizing the determinant of a robust estimator of the scatter matrix of differences of residuals. In the special case of a multivariate location model, the generalized S-estimator has the important independence pr...
متن کاملMultivariate limited translation hierarchical Bayes estimators
Based on the notion of predictive influence functions, the paper develops multivariate limited translation hierarchical Bayes estimators of the normal mean vector which serve as a compromise between the hierarchical Bayes and maximum likelihood estimators. The paper demonstrates the superiority of the limited translation estimators over the usual hierarchical Bayes estimators in terms of the fr...
متن کاملA new class of generalized Bayes minimax ridge regression estimators
Let y = Aβ + ε, where y is an N × 1 vector of observations, β is a p× 1 vector of unknown regression coefficients, A is an N × p design matrix and ε is a spherically symmetric error term with unknown scale parameter σ. We consider estimation of β under general quadratic loss functions, and, in particular, extend the work of Strawderman [J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 73 (1978) 623–627] and Casella [A...
متن کاملGeneralized variance estimators in the multivariate gamma models
It has been shown that the uniformly minimum variance unbiased (UMVU) estimator of the generalized variance always exists for any natural exponential family. In practice, however, this estimator is often di¢ cult to obtain. This paper explicitly identi es the results in complete bivariate and symmetric multivariate gamma models, which are diagonal quadratic exponential families. For the non-ind...
