Admissible Estimators of ?r in the Gamma Distribution with Truncated Parameter Space

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

In this paper, we consider admissible estimation of the parameter ?r in the gamma distribution with truncated parameter space under entropy loss function. We obtain the classes of admissible estimators. The result can be applied to estimation of parameters in the normal, lognormal, pareto, generalized gamma, generalized Laplace and other distributions.

Truncated Linear Minimax Estimator of a Power of the Scale Parameter in a Lower- Bounded Parameter Space

 Minimax estimation problems with restricted parameter space reached increasing interest within the last two decades Some authors derived minimax and admissible estimators of bounded parameters under squared error loss and scale invariant squared error loss In some truncated estimation problems the most natural estimator to be considered is the truncated version of a classic...

Admissible and Minimax Estimator of the Parameter $theta$ in a Binomial $Bin( n ,theta)$ ­distribution under Squared Log Error Loss Function in a Lower Bounded Parameter Space

Extended Abstract. The study of truncated parameter space in general is of interest for the following reasons: 1.They often occur in practice. In many cases certain parameter values can be excluded from the parameter space. Nearly all problems in practice have a truncated parameter space and it is most impossible to argue in practice that a parameter is not bounded. In truncated parameter...

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...

Admissible Estimators in the General Multivariate Linear Model with Respect to Inequality Restricted Parameter Set

By using themethods of linear algebra andmatrix inequality theory, we obtain the characterization of admissible estimators in the general multivariate linear model with respect to inequality restricted parameter set. In the classes of homogeneous and general linear estimators, the necessary and suffcient conditions that the estimators of regression coeffcient function are admissible are establi...

We show that the methodology suggested by Cox and S...
