A Unified Measure of Uncertainty of Estimated Best Linear Unbiased Predictors in Small Area Estimation Problems
We obtain a second order approximation to the mean squared error (MSE), and its estimate, of the empirical or estimated best linear unbiased predictor (EBLUP) of a mixed effect in a general mixed linear normal model. This covers many important small area models in the literature. Unlike previous research in this area, we provide a unified theory of measuring uncertainty of an EBLUP for a comple...
متن کاملBest Linear Unbiased Estimation in Linear Models
where X is a known n × p model matrix, the vector y is an observable ndimensional random vector, β is a p × 1 vector of unknown parameters, and ε is an unobservable vector of random errors with expectation E(ε) = 0, and covariance matrix cov(ε) = σV, where σ > 0 is an unknown constant. The nonnegative definite (possibly singular) matrix V is known. In our considerations σ has no role and hence ...
متن کاملBest linear unbiased estimation and prediction under a selection model.
Mixed linear models are assumed in most animal breeding applications. Convenient methods for computing BLUE of the estimable linear functions of the fixed elements of the model and for computing best linear unbiased predictions of the random elements of the model have been available. Most data available to animal breeders, however, do not meet the usual requirements of random sampling, the prob...

متن کاملAn Empirical Bayes Derivation of Best Linear Unbiased Predictors
Let (Y1,θ1), . . . ,(Yn,θn) be independent real-valued random vectors with Yi, given θi, is distributed according to a distribution depending only on θi for i= 1, . . . ,n. In this paper, best linear unbiased predictors (BLUPs) of the θi’s are investigated. We show that BLUPs of θi’s do not exist in certain situations. Furthermore, we present a general empirical Bayes technique for deriving BLUPs.
