Limiting Properties of Empirical Bayes Estimators in a Two-Factor Experiment under Inverse Gaussian Model
The empirical Bayes estimators of treatment effects in a factorial experiment were derived and their asymptotic properties were explored. It was shown that they were asymptotically optimal and the estimator of the scale parameter had a limiting gamma distribution while the estimators of the factor effects had a limiting multivariate normal distribution. A Bootstrap analysis was performed to ill...
متن کاملEmpirical Bayes Estimators with Uncertainty Measures for NEF-QVF Populations
The paper proposes empirical Bayes (EB) estimators for simultaneous estimation of means in the natural exponential family (NEF) with quadratic variance functions (QVF) models. Morris (1982, 1983a) characterized the NEF-QVF distributions which include among others the binomial, Poisson and normal distributions. In addition to the EB estimators, we provide approximations to the MSE’s of t...
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 کاملTwo semi parametric empirical Bayes estimators
Parametric empirical Bayes PEB may perform poorly when the assumed prior distribution is seriously invalid Nonparametric empirical Bayes NEB is more robust since it imposes no restric tion on the prior But compared with the PEB the NEB may be ine cient for small to medium samples due to the large variation and under dispersion of the NPMLE of the prior Using Monte Carlo simulations we compare t...
متن کاملEmpirical Bayes Estimators for Borel { TannerDistributionGeorge
The Borel-Tanner probability distribution was derived by Borel (1942) and Tanner (1953) to characterize the distribution behavior of the number of customers served in a queuing system with Poisson input and constant service time. Later this probability distribution was applied in some models for random trees and branching processes. In the latter case one of the parameters can be interpreted as...
