Shrinkage Preliminary Test Estimation under a Precautionary Loss Function with Applications on Records and Censored Ddata

Authors

Abstract:

Shrinkage preliminary test estimation in exponential distribution under a precautionary loss function is considered. The minimum risk-unbiased estimator is derived and some shrinkage preliminary test estimators are proposed. We apply our results on censored data and records. The relative efficiencies of proposed estimators with respect to the minimum ‎risk-unbiased‎  estimator based on record data under the considered loss function are computed for evaluating the performance of these ‎estimators.

On Estimation Following Selection with Applications on k-Records and Censored Data

Let X1 and X2 be two independent random variables from gamma populations Pi1,P2 with means alphaθ1 and alphaθ2 respectively, where alpha(> 0) is the common known shape parameter and θ1 and θ2 are scale parameters. Let X(1) ≤ X(2) denote the order statistics ofX1 and X2. Suppose that the population corresponding to the largest X(2) (or the smallest X(1)) observation is selected. The problem ofin...

E-Bayesian Approach in A Shrinkage Estimation of Parameter of Inverse Rayleigh Distribution under General Entropy Loss Function

‎Whenever approximate and initial information about the unknown parameter of a distribution is available, the shrinkage estimation method can be used to estimate it. In this paper, first the $ E $-Bayesian estimation of the parameter of inverse Rayleigh distribution under the general entropy loss function is obtained. Then, the shrinkage estimate of the inverse Rayleigh distribution parameter i...

Estimation of Scale Parameter Under a Bounded Loss Function

     The quadratic loss function has been used by decision-theoretic statisticians and economists for many years.  In this paper  the estimation of scale parameter under a bounded loss function, which is adequate for assessing quality and quality improvement, is considered with restriction to the principles of invariance and risk unbiasedness. An implicit form of minimum risk scale equivariant ...

ESTIMATION OF SCALE PARAMETER UNDER A REFLECTED GAMMA LOSS FUNCTION

In this paper, the estimation of a scale parameter t under a new and bounded loss function, based on a reflection of the gamma density function, is discussed. The best scale-invariant estimator of tis obtained and the admissibility of all linear functions of the sufficient statistic, for estimating t in the absence of a nuisance parameter, is investigated

Classic and Bayes Shrinkage Estimation in Rayleigh Distribution Using a Point Guess Based on Censored Data

Introduction      In classical methods of statistics, the parameter of interest is estimated based on a random sample using natural estimators such as maximum likelihood or unbiased estimators (sample information). In practice,  the researcher has a prior information about the parameter in the form of a point guess value. Information in the guess value is called as nonsample information. Thomp...

Performance of Preliminary Test Estimator under Linex Loss Function

ABSTRACT This paper studies the performance of the unrestricted estimator (UE) and preliminary test estimator (PTE) of the slope parameter of simple linear regression model under linex loss function. The risk functions of both the UE and PTE are derived. The moment generating function (MGF) of the PTE is derived which turns out to be a component of the risk function. From the MGF the first two ...
