Estimation 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 کاملMinimax Estimator of a Lower Bounded Parameter of a Discrete Distribution under a Squared Log Error Loss Function
The problem of estimating the parameter ?, when it is restricted to an interval of the form , in a class of discrete distributions, including Binomial Negative Binomial discrete Weibull and etc., is considered. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for which the Bayes estimator of with respect to a two points boundary supported prior is minimax under squared log error loss function....
متن کاملAdmissible and Minimax Estimator of the Parameter $theta$ in a Binomial $Bin( n ,theta)$ distribution under Squared Log Error Loss Function in a Lower Bounded Parameter Space
Extended Abstract. The study of truncated parameter space in general is of interest for the following reasons: 1.They often occur in practice. In many cases certain parameter values can be excluded from the parameter space. Nearly all problems in practice have a truncated parameter space and it is most impossible to argue in practice that a parameter is not bounded. In truncated parameter...
متن کاملMinimax Estimation of a Bounded Discrete Parameter
For a vast class of discrete model families with cdf’s Fθ, and for estimating θ under squared error loss under a constraint of the type θ ∈ [0,m], we present a general and unified development concerning the minimaxity of a boundary supported prior Bayes estimator. While the sufficient conditions obtained are of the expected form m ≤ m(F ), the approach presented leads, in many instances, to bot...
متن کاملEstimation of Lower Bounded Scale Parameter of Rescaled F-distribution under Entropy Loss Function
We consider the problem of estimating the scale parameter &beta of a rescaled F-distribution when &beta has a lower bounded constraint of the form &beta&gea, under the entropy loss function. An admissible minimax estimator of the scale parameter &beta, which is the pointwise limit of a sequence of Bayes estimators, is given. Also in the class of truncated linear estimators, the admissible estim...
