On estimation of parameters in the bivariate linear errors-in-variables model

Anna Czapkiewicz (1999)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We discuss some methods of estimation in bivariate errors-in-variables linear models. We also suggest a method of constructing consistent estimators in the case when the error disturbances have the normal distribution with unknown parameters. It is based on the theory of estimating variance components in linear models. A simulation study is presented which compares this estimator with the maximum likelihood one.

On Fourier coefficient estimators consistent in the mean-square sense

Waldemar Popiński (1994)

Applicationes Mathematicae

The properties of two recursive estimators of the Fourier coefficients of a regression function f L 2 [ a , b ] with respect to a complete orthonormal system of bounded functions (ek) , k=1,2,..., are considered in the case of the observation model y i = f ( x i ) + η i , i=1,...,n , where η i are independent random variables with zero mean and finite variance, x i [ a , b ] R 1 , i=1,...,n, form a random sample from a distribution with density ϱ =1/(b-a) (uniform distribution) and are independent of the errors η i , i=1,...,n . Unbiasedness and mean-square...

On geometry of the set of admissible quadratic estimators of quadratic functions of normal parameters

Konrad Neumann, Stefan Zontek (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

We consider the problem of admissible quadratic estimation of a linear function of μ² and σ² in n dimensional normal model N(Kμ,σ²Iₙ) under quadratic risk function. After reducing this problem to admissible estimation of a linear function of two quadratic forms, the set of admissible estimators are characterized by giving formulae on the boundary of the set D ⊂ R² of components of the two quadratic forms constituting the set of admissible estimators. Different shapes and topological properties of...

On maximum likelihood estimation in mixed normal models with two variance components

Mariusz Grządziel (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

In the paper we deal with the problem of parameter estimation in the linear normal mixed model with two variance components. We present solutions to the problem of finding the global maximizer of the likelihood function and to the problem of finding the global maximizer of the REML likelihood function in this model.

On non-nested regression models

Jiří Anděl (1993)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A generalization of a test for non-nested models in linear regression is derived for the case when there are several regression models with more regressors.

On one approach to local surface smoothing

Nikolay Dikoussar, Csaba Török (2007)

Kybernetika

A bicubic model for local smoothing of surfaces is constructed on the base of pivot points. Such an approach allows reducing the dimension of matrix of normal equations more than twice. The model enables to increase essentially the speed and stability of calculations. The algorithms, constructed by the aid of the offered model, can be used both in applications and the development of global methods for smoothing and approximation of surfaces.

On parameter-effects arrays in non-linear regression models

Rastislav Potocký, Van Ban To (1993)

Applications of Mathematics

Formulas for a new three- and four-dimensional parameter-effects arrays corresponding to transformations of parameters in non-linear regression models are given. These formulae make the construction of the confidence regions for parameters easier. An example is presented which shows that some care is necessary when a new array is computed.
