Cluster-Seeking James-Stein Estimators
This paper considers the problem of estimating a high-dimensional vector of parameters θ ∈ R from a noisy observation. The noise vector is i.i.d. Gaussian with known variance. For a squared-error loss function, the James-Stein (JS) estimator is known to dominate the simple maximum-likelihood (ML) estimator when the dimension n exceeds two. The JS-estimator shrinks the observed vector towards th...
متن کاملJames-Stein type estimators of variances
In this paper we propose James–Stein type estimators for variances raised to a fixed power by shrinking individual variance estimators towards the arithmetic mean. We derive and estimate the optimal choices of shrinkage parameters under both the squared and the Stein loss functions. Asymptotic properties are investigated under two schemes when either the number of degrees of freedom of each ind...
متن کاملGeodesic Refinement Using James-Stein Estimators
In longitudinal imaging studies, geodesic regression in the space of diffeomorphisms [9] can be used to fit a generative model to images over time. The parameters of the model, primarily its initial direction or momentum, are important objects for study that contain biologically meaningful information about the dynamics occurring in the underlying anatomy. Unfortunately, it is common for any gi...

متن کاملAnalysis of the Gibbs sampler for a model related to James-Stein estimators
We analyze a hierarchical Bayes model which is related to the usual empirical Bayes formulation of James-Stein estimators. We consider running a Gibbs sampler on this model. Using previous results about convergence rates of Markov chains, we provide rigorous, numerical, reasonable bounds on the running time of the Gibbs sampler, for a suitable range of prior distributions. We apply these result...
