Adaptive trimmed mean as a location estimate
Abstract The trimmed mean is one of the most common estimators of location for symmetrical distributions, whose effect depends on whether the trim rate matches the proportion of contaminated data. Based on the geometric characteristics of the curve of the trimmed variance function, the authors propose two kinds of adaptive trimmed mean algorithms. The accuracy of the estimators is compared with...
متن کاملMean Value Theorems on Manifolds
We derive several mean value formulae on manifolds, generalizing the classical one for harmonic functions on Euclidean spaces as well as the results of Schoen-Yau, Michael-Simon, etc, on curved Riemannian manifolds. For the heat equation a mean value theorem with respect to ‘heat spheres’ is proved for heat equation with respect to evolving Riemannian metrics via a space-time consideration. Som...
متن کاملConfidence Regions for the Mean of a Fuzzy Random Variable
The aim of this paper is to extend the classical problem of confidence interval estimation for the mean of a random variable to the case of a fuzzy random variable. The key idea consists in considering a confidence region defined as a ball w.r.t. a given metric, which is centered in the sample mean and whose radius is determined via bootstrapping. The developed approach is illustrated both by m...
متن کاملMinimum Volume Confidence Regions for a Multivariate Normal Mean Vector
Since Stein’s original proposal in 1962, a series of papers have constructed confidence regions of smaller volume than the standard spheres for the mean vector of a multivariate normal distribution. A general approach to this problem is developed here, and used to calculate a lower bound on the attainable volume. Bayes and fiducial methods are involved in the calculation. Scheffe-type problems ...

Let Xl' ""Xn be a sample from a population with continuous distribution function F(x -8) such that F(x) +F(-x) =1 and o 80 cannot tend to 1 as 8 -80 -+ 00 more than n times faster than the tails of F tend to O. Some standard as well as robust tests are considered with respect to this rate of conver...
