Pitman Closeness of Order Statistics to Population Quantiles
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, Pitman closeness of sample order statistics to population quantiles of a locationscale family of distributions is discussed. Explicit expressions are derived for some specific families such as uniform, exponential and power function. Numerical results are then presented for these families for sample sizes n = 10, 15, and for the choices of p = 0.10, 0.25, 0.75, 0.90. The Pitman-closest order statistic is also determined in these cases and presented.

Pitman Closest Estimators Based on Convex Linear Combinations of Two Contiguous Order Statistics
Comparisons of best linear unbiased estimatorswith someother prominent estimators have been carried out over the last six decades since the ground breaking work of Lloyd [13]; see Arnold et al.

Recently, Pitman closeness comparison of order statistics as estimators for population parameters, such as medians and quantiles, and ...
متن کاملPitman-Closeness of Preliminary Test and Some Classical Estimators Based on Records from Two-Parameter Exponential Distribution
In this paper, we study the performance of estimators of parametersof two-parameter exponential distribution based on upper records. The generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) test was used to generate preliminary test estimator (PTE) for both parameters. We have compared the proposed estimator with maximum likelihood (ML) and unbiased estimators (UE) under mean-squared error (MSE) and Pitman me...

متن کاملOn Pitman Closeness of Pitman Estimators
Pitman estimators of location are unbiased, translation-equivariant and possess some optimality properties under quadratic loss. Similar optimality properties of Pitman estimators are studied with respect to the measure of Pitman closeness of estimators.
