Estimation in universal models with restrictions

Eva Fišerová (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In modelling a measurement experiment some singularities can occur even if the experiment is quite standard and simple. Such an experiment is described in the paper as a motivation example. It is presented in the papar how to solve these situations under special restrictions on model parameters. The estimability of model parameters is studied and unbiased estimators are given in explicit forms.

On some properties of ML and REML estimators in mixed normal models with two variance components

Stanisław Gnot, Andrzej Michalski, Agnieszka Urbańska-Motyka (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

In the paper, the problem of estimation of variance components σ₁² and σ₂² by using the ML-method and REML-method in a normal mixed linear model 𝒩 {Y,E(Y) = Xβ, Cov(Y) = σ₁²V + σ₂²Iₙ} is considered. This paper deal with properties of estimators of variance components, particularly when an explicit form of these estimators is unknown. The conditions when the ML and REML estimators can be expressed in explicit forms are given, too. The simulation study for one-way classification unbalanced...

Robust m-estimator of parameters in variance components model

Roman Zmyślony, Stefan Zontek (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

It is shown that a method of robust estimation in a two way crossed classification mixed model, recently proposed by Bednarski and Zontek (1996), can be extended to a more general case of variance components model with commutative a covariance matrices.

Estimation of variance components in mixed linear models

Júlia Volaufová, Viktor Witkovský (1992)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The MINQUE of the linear function ' ϑ of the unknown variance-components parameter ϑ in mixed linear model under linear restrictions of the type 𝐑 ϑ = c is defined and derived. As an illustration of this estimator the example of the one-way classification model with the restrictions ϑ 1 = k ϑ 2 , where k 0 , is given.

Variance components and an additional experiment

Lubomír Kubáček (2012)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

Estimators of parameters of an investigated object can be considered after some time as insufficiently precise. Therefore, an additional measurement must be realized. A model of a measurement, taking into account both the original results and the new ones, has a litle more complicated covariance matrix, since the variance components occur in it. How to deal with them is the aim of the paper.

The problem of determining estimators for different structural parameters in the case of credibility results for weighted contracts

Virginia Atanasiu (2007)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

This paper presents and analyzes the estimators of the structural parameters, in the Bühlmann-Straub model, involving complicated mathematical properties of conditional expectations and of conditional covariances. So to enable to use the better linear credibility results obtained in this model, we will provide useful estimators for the structure parameters. From the practical point of view it is stated the attractive property of unbiasedness for these estimators.

An alternative analysis of variance.

Nicholas T. Longford (2008)

SORT

Similarity:

The one-way analysis of variance is a staple of elementary statistics courses. The hypothesis test of homogeneity of the means encourages the use of the selected-model based estimators which are usually assessed without any regard for the uncertainty about the outcome of the test. We expose the weaknesses of such estimators when the uncertainty is taken into account, as it should be, and propose synthetic estimators as an alternative.
