Generalized Maximum Spacing Estimators
The maximum spacing (MSP) method, introduced by Cheng and Amin (1983) and independently by Ranneby (1984), is a general method for estimating param eters in univariate continuous distributions and is known to give consistent and asymptotically efficient estimates under general conditions. This method can be derived from an approximation based on simple spacings of the Kullback-Leibler informat...
متن کاملMulticollinearity and maximum entropy estimators
Multicollinearity hampers empirical econometrics. The remedies proposed to date suffer from pitfalls of their own. The ridge estimator is not generally accepted as a vital alternative to the ordinary least−squares (OLS) estimator because it depends upon unknown parameters. The generalized maximum entropy estimator depends upon subjective exogenous information. This paper presents a novel maximu...
متن کاملA family-based robust multivariate association test using maximum statistic.
For characterizing the genetic mechanisms of complex diseases familial data with multiple correlated quantitative traits are usually collected in genetic studies. To analyze such data, various multivariate tests have been proposed to investigate the association between the underlying disease genes and the multiple traits. Although these multivariate association tests may have better power perfo...
متن کاملRobust Maximum Association Between Data Sets: The R Package ccaPP
An intuitive measure of association between two multivariate data sets can be defined as the maximal value that a bivariate association measure between any one-dimensional projections of each data set can attain. Rank correlation measures thereby have the advantage that they combine good robustness properties with good efficiency. The software package ccaPP provides fast implementations of such...
متن کاملConsistency of robust portfolio estimators
It is a matter of common knowledge that traditional Markowitz optimization based on sample means and covariances performs poorly in practice. For this reason, diverse attempts were made to improve performance of portfolio optimization. In this paper, we investigate three popular portfolio selection models built upon classical meanvariance theory. The first model is an extension of the tradition...
