Likelihood and Least-squares Approaches to the M-cornered Hat
نویسنده
چکیده
A simple model of the m-cornered hat estimation problem is set up and solved by the method of maximum likelihood. The method is compared by simulation to a leastsquares method of Barnes and is shown to be inferior to it on the basis of mean square error. A bootstrap method of computing estimator performance is presented.

Inverse modeling of gravity field data due to finite vertical cylinder using modular neural network and least-squares standard deviation method
In this paper, modular neural network (MNN) inversion has been applied for the parameters approximation of the gravity anomaly causative target. The trained neural network is used for estimating the amplitude coefficient and depths to the top and bottom of a finite vertical cylinder source. The results of the applied neural network method are compared with the results of the least-squares stand...
متن کاملEfficient Estimation of the Density and Cumulative Distribution Function of the Generalized Rayleigh Distribution
The uniformly minimum variance unbiased (UMVU), maximum likelihood, percentile (PC), least squares (LS) and weighted least squares (WLS) estimators of the probability density function (pdf) and cumulative distribution function are derived for the generalized Rayleigh distribution. This model can be used quite effectively in modelling strength data and also modeling general lifetime data. It has...
متن کاملFit Indices in Covariance Structure Modeling: Sensitivity to Underparameterized Model Misspecification
This study evaluated the sensitivity of maximum likelihood (ML)-, generalized least squares (GLS)-, and asymptotic distribution-free (ADF)-based fit indices to model misspecification, under conditions that varied sample size and distribution. The effect of violating assumptions of asymptotic robustness theory also was examined. Standardized root-mean-square residual (SRMR) was the most sensitiv...

Unobservable productivity shocks cause selection and simultaneity problems in firm’s decisions and these problems cause estimators such as ordinary least squares, have biased estimation for coefficients of production function inputs. In this study, data of five automaker companies in the period of 1383-1387 have been used and production function of car industry have been estimated by ordinary l...
متن کاملA robust least squares fuzzy regression model based on kernel function
In this paper, a new approach is presented to fit arobust fuzzy regression model based on some fuzzy quantities. Inthis approach, we first introduce a new distance between two fuzzynumbers using the kernel function, and then, based on the leastsquares method, the parameters of fuzzy regression model isestimated. The proposed approach has a suitable performance to<b...
