A Quartic Quality Loss Function and Its Properties
We propose a quartic function to represent a family of continuous quality loss functions. Depending on the choice of its parameters the shape of this function within the specification limits can be either symmetric or asymmetric, and it can be either similar to the ubiquitous quadratic loss function or somewhat closer to the conventional step function. We examine this family of loss functions i...
متن کاملA Linear Mini-max Estimator for the Case of a Quartic Loss Function
Let Y (t) be a stochastic process on [0; 1] modeled as dYt = (t)dt + dW (t), where W (t) denotes a standard Wiener process, and (t) is an unknown function assumed to belong to a given set L2[0; 1]. We consider the problem of estimating the value L( ), where L is a known continuous linear function de ned on , using linear estimators of the form hm; yi = R m(t)dY (t); m 2 L2[0; 1]. We solve the p...
متن کاملBAYES ESTIMATION USING A LINEX LOSS FUNCTION
This paper considers estimation of normal mean ? when the variance is unknown, using the LINEX loss function. The unique Bayes estimate of ? is obtained when the precision parameter has an Inverse Gaussian prior density
متن کاملEstimation of Scale Parameter Under a Bounded Loss Function
The quadratic loss function has been used by decision-theoretic statisticians and economists for many years. In this paper the estimation of scale parameter under a bounded loss function, which is adequate for assessing quality and quality improvement, is considered with restriction to the principles of invariance and risk unbiasedness. An implicit form of minimum risk scale equivariant ...
متن کاملESTIMATION OF SCALE PARAMETER UNDER A REFLECTED GAMMA LOSS FUNCTION
In this paper, the estimation of a scale parameter t under a new and bounded loss function, based on a reflection of the gamma density function, is discussed. The best scale-invariant estimator of tis obtained and the admissibility of all linear functions of the sufficient statistic, for estimating t in the absence of a nuisance parameter, is investigated
