Estimating a Bounded Normal Mean Under the LINEX Loss Function
نویسنده
چکیده مقاله:
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 minimax estimation of θ In this paper, by constructing a dominating class of estimators, we show that the maximum likelihood estimator is inadmissible. Then, as a competitor, the Bayes estimator associated with a uniform prior on the interval [−m,m] is proposed. Finally, considering risk performance as a comparison criterion, the estimators are compared and depending on the values taken by θ in the interval [−m,m], the appropriate estimator is suggested.

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 ...
