On discrete a-unimodal and a-monotone distributions
Unimodality is one of the building structures of distributions that like skewness, kurtosis and symmetry is visible in the shape of a function. Comparing two different distributions, can be a very difficult task. But if both the distributions are of the same types, for example both are unimodal, for comparison we may just compare the modes, dispersions and skewness. So, the concept of unimodali...
متن کاملA Note on Misspecified Estimating Functions
We consider the use of estimating functions that are not unbiased. Typically, to result in consistent estimators, unbiasedness of estimating functions is a pre-requisite. However, it is sometimes easier to find a useful estimating function that is biased, especially in the presence of missing data or misclassified observations. We show that the root of the estimating function can be modified to...
متن کاملA Note on Estimating Distribution Functions1
In this note we consider the problem of estimating the distribution function Fiy) in terms of the sequence of numbers {a»}, and the sequence of functions/B(y). To this end we consider, for each positive integer ra, a system of equations and inequalities. We construct a distribution function £n(y) in terms of any solution of this system, and show that limnH.,0 £.(y) = £(y) for every continuity p...
متن کاملA Note on Estimating Wishart Autoregressive Model
This note solves the puzzle of estimating degenerate Wishart Autoregressive processes, introduced by Gourieroux, Jasiak and Sufana (2009) to model multivariate stochastic volatility. It derives the asymptotic and empirical properties of the Method of Moment estimator of the Wishart degrees of freedom subject to different stationarity assumptions and specific distributional settings of the under...
متن کاملA Note on Borel's Density Theorem
We prove the following theorem of Borel: // G is a semisimple Lie group, H a closed subgroup such that the quotient space G/H carries finite measure, then for any finite-dimensional representation of G, each H-invariant subspace is G-invariant. The proof depends on a consideration of measures on projective spaces. The following is a relatively elementary proof of A. Borel's "density" theorem [1...
