چکیده

We derive minimax generalized Bayes estimators of regression coefficients in the general linear model with spherically symmetric errors under invariant quadratic loss for the case of unknown scale. The class of estimators generalizes the class considered in Maruyama and Strawderman (2005) to include non-monotone shrinkage functions. AMS subject classification: Primary 62C20, secondary 62J07

A new class of generalized Bayes minimax ridge regression estimators

Let y = Aβ + ε, where y is an N × 1 vector of observations, β is a p× 1 vector of unknown regression coefficients, A is an N × p design matrix and ε is a spherically symmetric error term with unknown scale parameter σ. We consider estimation of β under general quadratic loss functions, and, in particular, extend the work of Strawderman [J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 73 (1978) 623–627] and Casella [A...

Estimation 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...

Optimal Estimation of Multidimensional Normal Means with an Unknown Variance

Let X ∼ Np(θ, σIp) and W ∼ σχm, where both θ and σ are unknown, and X is independent of W . Optimal estimation of θ with unknown σ is a fundamental issue in applications but basic theoretical issues remain open. We consider estimation of θ under squared error loss. We develop sufficient conditions for prior density functions such that the corresponding generalized Bayes estimators for θ are adm...

Estimating a Bounded Normal Mean Under the LINEX Loss Function

Let X be a random variable from a normal distribution with unknown mean θ and known variance σ2. In many practical situations, θ is known in advance to lie in an interval, say [−m,m], for some m > 0. As the usual estimator of θ, i.e., X under the LINEX loss function is inadmissible, finding some competitors for X becomes worthwhile. The only study in the literature considered the problem of min...
