The problem of tting continuous time autoregressions linear and non linear to closely and regularly spaced data is considered For the linear case Jones and Bergstrom used state space representations to compute exact maximum likelihood estimators and Phillips did so by tting an appropriate discrete time ARMA process to the data In this paper we use exact conditional maximum likelihood estimators...

The problem of estimating the parameters of multivariate linear models in the context of an arbitrary pattern of missing data is addressed in the present paper. While this problem is frequently handled by EM strategies, we propose a Gauss-Markov approach based on an initial linearization of the covariance of the model. A complete class of quadratic estimators is first exhibited in order to deri...

We study and compare three estimators of a discrete monotone distribution: (a) the (raw) empirical estimator; (b) the "method of rearrangements" estimator; and (c) the maximum likelihood estimator. We show that the maximum likelihood estimator strictly dominates both the rearrangement and empirical estimators in cases when the distribution has intervals of constancy. For example, when the distr...

Suppose we observe a geometrically ergodic semi-Markov process and have a parametric model for the transition distribution of the embedded Markov chain, for the conditional distribution of the inter-arrival times, or for both. The first two models for the process are semiparametric, and the parameters can be estimated by conditional maximum likelihood estimators. The third model for the process...

Bayes and classical estimators have been obtained for two-parameter exponentiated-Weibull distribution when sample is available from type-II censoring scheme. Bayes estimators have been developed under squared error loss function as well as under LINEX loss function using non-informative type of priors for the parameters. Besides, the generalized maximum likelihood estimators and the usual maxi...

Relatedness between individuals is central to many studies in genetics and population biology. A variety of estimators have been developed to enable molecular marker data to quantify relatedness. Despite this, no effort has been given to characterize the traditional maximum-likelihood estimator in relation to the remainder. This article quantifies its statistical performance under a range of bi...

We consider a rank-based technique for estimating GARCH model parameters, some of which are scale transformations of conventional GARCH parameters. The estimators are obtained by minimizing a rank-based residual dispersion function similar to the one given in Jaeckel (1972). They are useful for GARCH order selection and preliminary estimation. We give a limiting distribution for the rank estima...

The method of maximum tapered likelihood has been proposed as a way to quickly estimate covariance parameters for stationary Gaussian random fields. We show that under a useful asymptotic regime, maximum tapered likelihood estimators are consistent and asymptotically normal for covariance models in common use. We then formalize the notion of tapered quasi-Bayesian estimators and show that they ...

The Allan variance is a well-known estimator of frequency stability and is often used to classify a time series into one of the standard clock noise types. By identifying the power-law model for clock noise with its long-memory equivalent, the Allan variance can also serve as an estimate for the long-memory parameter. Although the Allan variance is not a maximum likelihood estimator, it can be ...

In general, classical methods such as maximum likelihood (ML) and least squares (LS) estimation methods are used to estimate the shape parameters of the Burr XII distribution. However, these estimators are very sensitive to the outliers. To overcome this problem we propose alternative robust estimators based on the M-estimation method for the shape parameters of the Burr XII distribution. We pr...
