Best Linear Unbiased Allele‐Frequency Estimation in Complex Pedigrees [PDF]
Summary. Many types of genetic analyses depend on estimates of allele frequencies. We consider the problem of allele‐frequency estimation based on data from related individuals. The motivation for this work is data collected on the Hutterites, an isolated founder population, so we focus particularly on the case in which the relationships among the ...

Consistency of the Estimator for the Common Mean in Fixed-Effect Meta-Analyses
Fixed-effect meta-analyses aim to estimate the common mean parameter by the best linear unbiased estimator. Besides unbiasedness, consistency is one of the most fundamental requirements for the common mean estimator to be valid.

Location Of Objects with a High Degree of Inner Precision
Let us have two coordinate systems in a plane. In the first one (e.g. JTSK) the accuracy of the coordinate estimators is signicantly lower than the accuracy in the other system (the inner system of an object).

Recovering Jackknife Ridge Regression Estimates from OLS Results [PDF]
The aim of this paper is addressing or recalculate the estimation methods in multiple linear regression model when there is a problem of Multicollinearity in this model like the ridge regression for Hoerl and Kannard, Baldwin estimator (HKB) and ...

n effective treatment of adding-up restrictions in the inference of a general linear model
This article offers a general procedure of carrying out estimation and inference under a linear statistical model $ {\bf y} = {\bf X} \pmb{\beta} + \pmb{\varepsilon} $ with an adding-up restriction $ {\bf A} {\bf y} = {\bf b} $ to the observed random ...

Upper bounds for the Euclidean distances between the BLUPs
In this article we consider the general linear model {y, X ß, V} where y is the observable random vector with expectation X ß and covariance matrix V. Our interest is on predicting the unobservable random vector y* which comes from y* = X* ß + ƹ* where ...

The BLUE in continuous-time regression models with correlated errors [PDF]
In this paper, the problem of best linear unbiased estimation is investigated for continuous-time regression models. We prove several general statements concerning the explicit form of the best linear unbiased estimator (BLUE), in particular when the ...
