Calculus of the estimators of linear quantile regression by the method ACCPM.
The changepoint estimation problem of a common change in panel means for a very general panel data structure is considered. The observations within each panel are allowed to be generally dependent and non-stationary. Simultaneously, the panels are weakly dependent and non-stationary among each other. The follow up period can be extremely short and the changepoint magnitudes may differ across the panels accounting also for a specific situation that some magnitudes are equal to zero (thus, no jump...
In this paper, we study the admissibility of linear estimator of regression coefficient in linear model under the extended balanced loss function (EBLF). The sufficient and necessary condition for linear estimators to be admissible are obtained respectively in homogeneous and non-homogeneous classes. Furthermore, we show that admissible linear estimator under the EBLF is a convex combination of the admissible linear estimator under the sum of square residuals and quadratic loss function.
We assume that the result of a football game depends upon the difference of the strengths of the teams, home-field advantage, random factors and also other components. We describe the goal outcome per game by independent Poisson random variables; we concentrate on expected values. The least squares estimators of the parameters are obtained. The study is illustrated by examples from the Italian and Polish leagues.
If θ ∈ Θ is an unknown real parameter of a given distribution, we are interested in constructing an exactly median-unbiased estimator θ̂ of θ, i.e. an estimator θ̂ such that a median Med(θ̂ ) of the estimator equals θ, uniformly over θ ∈ Θ. We shall consider the problem in the case of a fixed sample size n (nonasymptotic approach).
The correction sonsists of deriving correct explicit formulas for MLE of parameters of the normal distribution under the hypothesis .
The stochastic approximation version of EM (SAEM) proposed by Delyon et al. (1999) is a powerful alternative to EM when the E-step is intractable. Convergence of SAEM toward a maximum of the observed likelihood is established when the unobserved data are simulated at each iteration under the conditional distribution. We show that this very restrictive assumption can be weakened. Indeed, the results of Benveniste et al. for stochastic approximation with markovian perturbations are used to establish...
