Error structures and parameter estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article proposes and studies a link between statistics and the theory of Dirichlet forms used to compute errors. The error calculus based on Dirichlet forms is an extension of classical Gauss’ approach to error propagation. The aim of this paper is to derive error structures from measurements. The links with Fisher’s information lay the foundations of a strong connection with experiment. Here we show that this connection behaves well towards changes of variables and is related to the theory of asymptotic statistics. Finally the study of products permits to lay the premise of an infinite dimensional empirical error calculus. Mathematical subject classification (2000): 31C25, 47B25, 49Q12, 62F99, 62B10, 65G99.

Minimax Estimation of the Scale Parameter in a Family of Transformed Chi-Square Distributions under Asymmetric Squared Log Error and MLINEX Loss Functions
This paper is concerned with the problem of finding the minimax estimators of the scale parameter ? in a family of transformed chi-square distributions, under asymmetric squared log error (SLE) and modified linear exponential (MLINEX) loss functions, using the Lehmann Theorem [2]. Also we show that the results of Podder et al. [4] for Pareto distribution are a special case of our results for th...
متن کاملComparison and evaluation of intelligent models for river suspended sediment estimation (case study: Kakareza River, Iran)
Sediment transport constantly influences river and civil structures and the lack ofinformation about its exact amount makes management efforts less effective. Hence,achieving a proper procedure to estimate the sediment load in rivers is important. We usedsupport vector machine model to estimate the sediments of the Kakareza River in LorestanProvince and the results were compared with those obta...

متن کاملEstimation of parameter of proportion in Binomial Distribution Using Adjusted Prior Distribution
Historically, various methods were suggested for the estimation of Bernoulli and Binomial distributions parameter. One of the suggested methods is the Bayesian method, which is based on employing prior distribution. Their sound selection on parameter space play a crucial role in reducing posterior Bayesian estimator error. At times, large scale of the parametric changes on parameter space bring...
