A Gaussian sequence approach for proving minimaxity: A Review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review minimax best equivariant estimation in these invariant estimation problems: a location parameter, a scale parameter and a (Wishart) covariance matrix.
Book ChapterDOI
Hypothesis Testing and Model Choice
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the situation in which a scientist would like to select one of the candidate models to use for inference, and they discuss hypothesis testing and model selection.
Book ChapterDOI
Restricted Parameter Spaces
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the problem of estimating a location vector which is constrained to lie in a convex subset of a set and show that the Bayes estimator of the mean with respect to the uniform prior over any convex set dominates X under the usual quadratic loss ∥δ − θ∥2.4.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sequential estimation of the variance of a normal distribution
TL;DR: In this article, a sequential version of Stein's estimator is used to show the existence of sequential estimators which are better both in risk (expected loss) and sample size than the usual estimator of a given fixed sample size.
Journal ArticleDOI
A unified approach to non-minimaxity of sets of linear combinations of restricted location estimators
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived necessary and sufficient conditions for minimaxity of generalized Bayes estimators with respect to the uniform distribution and the truncated version of the unbiased estimator.
