The Structure of Bhattacharyya Matrix in Natural Exponential Family and Its Role in Approximating the Variance of a Statistics
In most situations the best estimator of a function of the parameter exists, but sometimes it has a complex form and we cannot compute its variance explicitly. Therefore, a lower bound for the variance of an estimator is one of the fundamentals in the estimation theory, because it gives us an idea about the accuracy of an estimator. It is well-known in statistical inference that the Cram&eac...
متن کاملApproximating-CVP to Within Almost-Polynomial Factors is NP-Hard
This paper shows the closest vector in a lattice to be NPhard to approximate to within any factor up to 2(logn)1 where = (log logn) c for any constant c < 12 . Introduction A lattice L = L(v1; ::; vn), for vectors v1; ::; vn 2 Rn is the set of all integer linear combinations of v1; ::; vn, that is, L = fP aivi j ai 2 Zg. Given a lattice L and an arbitrary vector y, the Closest Vector Problem (C...
متن کاملImproved Cramer-Rao Inequality for Randomly Censored Data
As an application of the improved Cauchy-Schwartz inequality due to Walker (Statist. Probab. Lett. (2017) 122:86-90), we obtain an improved version of the Cramer-Rao inequality for randomly censored data derived by Abdushukurov and Kim (J. Soviet. Math. (1987) pp. 2171-2185). We derive a lower bound of Bhattacharya type for the mean square error of a parametric function based on randomly censor...
متن کاملSampling Short Lattice Vectors and the Closest Lattice Vector Problem
We present a 2 O(n) time Turing reduction from the closest lattice vector problem to the shortest lattice vector problem. Our reduction assumes access to a subroutine that solves SVP exactly and a subroutine to sample short vectors from a lattice, and computes a (1+)-approximation to CVP. As a consequence, using the SVP algorithm from 1], we obtain a randomized 2 O(1+ ?1)n algorithm to obtain a...
متن کاملAn improved approach for ranking the candidates in a voting system based on efficiency intervals
This paper proposes improvements and revisions to a recent approach in a voting system, and provides an effective approach with a stronger discriminate power. For this purpose, the advantage of a linear transformation is utilized to redene a previously used concept of virtual worst candidate, by incorporating the existing weight restrictions. Then, the best score of this virtual candidate is us...
