In this work we explore possibilities for coding and decoding tailor-made for mean squared error evaluation of error in contexts such as image transmission. To do so, we introduce a loss function that expresses the overall performance of a coding and decoding scheme for discrete channels and that exchanges the usual goal of minimizing the error probability to that of minimizing the expected los...

The James-Stein estimator is an of the multivariate normal mean and dominates maximum likelihood (MLE) under squared error loss. original work inspired great interest in developing shrinkage estimators for a variety problems. Nonetheless, research on estimation manifold-valued data scarce. In this paper, we propose parameters Log-Normal distribution defined manifold $N \times N$ symmetric posit...

This paper considers the Bayesian point estimation of the scale parameter for a two-parameter gamma life-testl,g model In presence of several outller observations in the data. The Bayesian analysis is carried out under the assumption of squared error loss function and fixed or random shape parameter.

This paper reviews and contrasts the basic elements of statistical decision theory [1–4] and statistical learning theory [5–7]. It is not intended to be a comprehensive treatment of either subject, but rather just enough to draw comparisons between the two. Throughout this paper, let X denote the input to a decision-making process and Y denote the correct response or output (e.g., the value of ...

In this paper, a Bayesian approach is proposed for shift point detection in an inverse Gaussian distribution. In this study, the mean parameter of inverse Gaussian distribution is assumed to be constant and shift points in shape parameter is considered. First the posterior distribution of shape parameter is obtained. Then the Bayes estimators are derived under a class of priors and using variou...

In this paper, we discuss the statistical inference on the unknown parameters and reliability function of type-II extreme value (EVII) distribution when the observed data are progressively type-II censored. By applying EM algorithm, we obtain maximum likelihood estimates (MLEs). We also suggest approximate maximum likelihood estimators (AMLEs), which have explicit expressions. We provide Bayes ...

We propose using the Wasserstein loss for training in inverse problems. In particular, we consider a learned primal-dual reconstruction scheme for ill-posed inverse problems using the Wasserstein distance as loss function in the learning. This is motivated by miss-alignments in training data, which when using standard mean squared error loss could severely degrade reconstruction quality. We pro...

We investigate the empirical Bayes estimation problem of multivariate regression coefficients under squared error loss function. In particular, we consider the regression model Y = Xβ+ ε, where Y is an m-vector of observations, X is a known m× k matrix, β is an unknown k-vector, and ε is anm-vector of unobservable random variables. The problem is squared error loss estimation of β based on some...

This paper address the problem of Bayesian estimation of the parameters, reliability and hazard function in the context of record statistics values from the two-parameter Lomax distribution. The ML and the Bayes estimates based on records are derived for the two unknown parameters and the survival time parameters, reliability and hazard functions. The Bayes estimates are obtained based on conju...
