Notes on the Extended Class of Stein Estimators
نویسنده
چکیده
An estimator in the extended class of Stein estimators has two undesirable properties. For a small value of prior guess, it ignores the data. Moreover, for some cases its risk is not uniformly smaller than that of Stein estimator. We show that there exists a lower bound on T(S) to guarantee a smaller risk, and the resulting estimator does not ignore the data.

Comparison of Small Area Estimation Methods for Estimating Unemployment Rate
Extended Abstract. In recent years, needs for small area estimations have been greatly increased for large surveys particularly household surveys in Sta­ tistical Centre of Iran (SCI), because of the costs and respondent burden. The lack of suitable auxiliary variables between two decennial housing and popula­ tion census is a challenge for SCI in using these methods. In general, the...
متن کاملMixed Estimators of Ordered Scale Parameters of Two Gamma Distributions with Arbitrary Known Shape Parameters
When an ordering among parameters is known in advance,the problem of estimating the smallest or the largest parametersarises in various practical problems. Suppose independent randomsamples of size ni drawn from two gamma distributions withknown arbitrary shape parameter no_i > 0 and unknown scale parameter beta_i > 0, i = 1, 2. We consider the class of mixed estimators of 1 and 2 under the res...

This paper considers the problem of estimating the population mean Ybar of the study variate Y using information on different parameters such as population mean $(bar{X})$, coefficient of variation $(C_x)$, kurtosis $beta_{2(x)}$, standard deviation $(S_x)$ of the auxiliary variate x and on the correlation coefficient, $rho$, between the study variate $Y$ and the auxiliary variate $...
