Consistent Estimation of Regression Coefficients in Replicated Data with Non-Normal Measurement Errors
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we consider a weighted harmonic mean of two inconsistent estimators to propose a new estimator of the coefficient of a linear regression model with measurement errors. The proposed estimator is simple and it does not depend on any unknown quantity. The approximate bias and MSE of the estimator are derived. Further, an empirical application is also presented. c © 2001 Peking University Press

Instrumental Variables Regression with Measurement Errors and Multicollinearity in Instruments
In this paper we obtain a consistent estimator when there exist some measurement errors and multicollinearity in the instrumental variables in a two stage least square estimation of parameters. We investigate the asymptotic distribution of the proposed estimator and discuss its properties using some theoretical proofs and a simulation study. A real numerical application is also provided for mor...
متن کاملRestricted regression estimation in measurement error models
The problem of consistent estimation of the regression coefficients when some prior information about the regression coefficients is available is considered. Such prior information is expressed in the form of exact linear restrictions. The knowledge of covariance matrix of measurement errors that is associated with explanatory variables is used to construct the consistent estimators. Some consi...
متن کاملSensitivity and uncertainty analysis of sediment rating equation coefficients using the Monte-Carlo simulation (Case study: Zoshk-Abardeh watershed, Shandiz)
The sediment load estimation is essential for watershed management and soil conservation strategies. The sediment rating curve is the most common approach for estimating the sediment load when the observed sediment records are not available. With regard to the measurement errors and the limitation of available data, the sediment rating curve has a degree of uncertainty which should be accounted...
متن کاملRobust best linear estimation for regression analysis using surrogate and instrumental variables.
We investigate methods for regression analysis when covariates are measured with errors. In a subset of the whole cohort, a surrogate variable is available for the true unobserved exposure variable. The surrogate variable satisfies the classical measurement error model, but it may not have repeated measurements. In addition to the surrogate variables that are available among the subjects in the...
متن کاملOn Presentation a new Estimator for Estimating of Population Mean in the Presence of Measurement error and non-Response
Introduction According to the classic sampling theory, errors that are mainly considered in the estimations are sampling errors. However, most non-sampling errors are more effective than sampling errors in properties of estimators. This has been confirmed by researchers over the past two decades, especially in relation to non-response errors that are one of the most fundamental non-immolation...
