The importance of being the upper bound in the bivariate family.

Carles M. Cuadras (2006)

SORT

Any bivariate cdf is bounded by the Fréchet-Hoeffding lower and upper bounds. We illustrate the importance of the upper bound in several ways. Any bivariate distribution can be written in terms of this bound, which is implicit in logit analysis and the Lorenz curve, and can be used in goodness-of-fit assesment. Any random variable can be expanded in terms of some functions related to this bound. The Bayes approach in comparing two proportions can be presented as the problem of choosing a parametric...

The integrated squared error estimation of parameters.

Jamal-Dine Chergui (1996)

Extracta Mathematicae

This paper deals with the problem of estimation in the parametric case for discrete random variables. Their study is facilitated by the powerful method of probability generating function.

The least trimmed squares. Part I: Consistency

Jan Ámos Víšek (2006)

Kybernetika

The consistency of the least trimmed squares estimator (see Rousseeuw [Rous] or Hampel et al. [HamRonRouSta]) is proved under general conditions. The assumptions employed in paper are discussed in details to clarify the consequences for the applications.

The least trimmed squares. Part III: Asymptotic normality

Jan Ámos Víšek (2006)

Kybernetika

Asymptotic normality of the least trimmed squares estimator is proved under general conditions. At the end of paper a discussion of applicability of the estimator (including the discussion of algorithm for its evaluation) is offered.
