Minimax Estimation via Wavelets for Indirect Long-Memory Data

open access: yes, 1997
In this paper we model linear inverse problems with long-range dependence by a fractional Gaussian noise model and study function estimation based on observations from the model. By using two wavelet-vaguelette decompositions, one for the inverse problem

Minimax Rules Under Zero-One Loss for a Restricted Location Parameter

open access: yes, 1997
Minimax Rules Under Zero-One Loss In this paper we study the existence, structure and computation of minimax and near-minimax rules under zero-one loss for a restricted location parameter of an absolutely continuous distribution.

Sharper Bounds in Adaptive Group Testing

open access: yes, 1998
Adaptive group testing in the presence of a large percentage of defectives is best done by individual testing rather than by pooling. The fraction of items which must be defective to make individual testing optimal remains unknown, and is conjectured to ...

Estimation of a Bounded Normal Mean: Modified Linear and Polynomial Estimators

open access: yes, 1994
Linear \Gamma-minimax estimators for a bounded normal mean have been explored by Vidakovic and DasGupta (1992). They have found that the risk of linear \Gamma-minimax rules is close to the risk of exact \Gamma-minimax rules. However, the linear rules are

Generalized Bayes minimax estimators of the mean of multivariate normal distribution with unknown variance

open access: yes
We construct a broad class of generalized Bayes minimax estimators of the mean of a multivariate normal distribution with covariance equal to [sigma]2Ip, with [sigma]2 unknown, and under the invariant loss ||[delta](X)-[theta]||2/[sigma]2.

A unified and generalized set of shrinkage bounds on minimax Stein estimates

open access: yes
Consider the problem of estimating the mean vector [theta] of a random variable X in , with a spherically symmetric density f(||x-[theta]||2), under loss ||[delta]-[theta]||2.

Admissibility and minimaxity of Bayes estimators for a normal mean matrix

open access: yes
In some invariant estimation problems under a group, the Bayes estimator against an invariant prior has equivariance as well. This is useful notably for evaluating the frequentist risk of the Bayes estimator.
