Simultaneous estimation of ordered parameters
Somesh Kumar,Divakar Sharma +1 more
TL;DR: The problem of estimating ordered parameters is encountered in biological, agricultural, reliability and various other experiments as discussed by the authors, where the authors consider two populations with densities f1(x 1-ω1) and f2(x 2-ω2) where ω1#ω2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Orthogonal Equivariant Minimax Estimatorsof Bivariate Normal Covariance Matrix and Precision Matrix
Divakar Sharma,K. Krishnamoorthy +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the scale and orthogonal equivariant minimax estimators are obtained for the bivariate normal covariance matrix and precision matrix under Selliah's (1964) and Stein's (1961) loss functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of the mean of the selected gamma population
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the natural estimator is positively biased, and the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (UMVE) of M is not minimax, while the minimazity of certain estimators of interest is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the pitman estimator op ordered normal means
Somesh Kumar,Divakar Sharma +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Pitman estimator and generalized Bayes estimator with respect to the uniform prior on is shown to be minimax when k = 2 and for k = 3, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI
A note on the estimation op the mean op the selected gamma population
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the (u,V) -method of Bobbins (1988) to obtain the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (UMVUE) of M, the mean of the selected gamma population and showed that the estimator dominates the natural estimator T -X(1) for squared error loss.
