Another Class of Minimax Estimators of A Variance Covariance Matrix in Multivariate Normal Distribution
It is well known that the best equivariant estimator of a variance covari-ance matrix of multivariate normal distribution with respect to the full ane group of transformation is not even minimax. Some minimax estimators have been proposed. Here we treat this problem in the framework of a multivari-ate analysis of variance(MANOVA) model and give other classes of minimax estimators.
متن کاملMinimax estimators of a normal variance
In the estimation problem of unknown variance of a multivariate normal distribution, a new class of minimax estimators is obtained. It is noted that a sequence of estimators in our class converges to the Stein’s truncated estimator.
متن کاملA new class of generalized Bayes minimax ridge regression estimators
Let y = Aβ + ε, where y is an N × 1 vector of observations, β is a p× 1 vector of unknown regression coefficients, A is an N × p design matrix and ε is a spherically symmetric error term with unknown scale parameter σ. We consider estimation of β under general quadratic loss functions, and, in particular, extend the work of Strawderman [J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 73 (1978) 623–627] and Casella [A...
متن کاملGeneralized variance estimators in the multivariate gamma models
It has been shown that the uniformly minimum variance unbiased (UMVU) estimator of the generalized variance always exists for any natural exponential family. In practice, however, this estimator is often di¢ cult to obtain. This paper explicitly identi es the results in complete bivariate and symmetric multivariate gamma models, which are diagonal quadratic exponential families. For the non-ind...
متن کاملOn combining correlated estimators of the common mean of a multivariate normal distribution
The inferential procedures based on an optimal combination of correlated estimators of the common mean of a multivariate normal distribution are considered. Exact properties of the conditional and unconditional confidence intervals due to Halperin [Halperin, 1961, Almost linearly-optimum combination of unbiased estimates. Journal of the American Statistical Association, 56, 36–43] are numerical...
