Estimating a Bounded Normal Mean
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that if the interval is small (approximately two standard deviations wide) then the Bayes rule against a two point prior is the unique minimax estimator under squared error loss.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combining information from independent sources through confidence distributions
TL;DR: In this paper, a formal definition of a confidence distribution and its asymptotic counterpart are given and illustrated in the context of combining information, and two general combination methods are developed: combining p-values, with some notable differences in regard to optimality of Bahadur type efficiency; the second by multiplying and normalizing confidence densities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Negative Moments of Positive Random Variables
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the problem of finding the expected value of functions of a random variable X of the form f(X) = (X+A)−n where X+A>0 a.s.
