Wavelet Estimation of Regression Derivatives for Biased and Negatively Associated Data
This paper considers the estimation of the derivatives of a regression function based on biased data. The main feature of the study is to explore the case where the data comes from a negatively associated process.

On Biased Stochastic Gradient Estimation
We present a uniform analysis of biased stochastic gradient methods for minimizing convex, strongly convex, and non-convex composite objectives, and identify settings where bias is useful in stochastic gradient estimation. The framework we present allows us to extend proximal support to biased algorithms, including SAG and SARAH, for the first time in ...

Biases in fiscal multiplier estimates [PDF]
The "true" size of fiscal multipliers is widely debated by economists and policy makers as large (small) multipliers provide arguments to expand (cut) public spending. Within a meta-analytical framework, we ask whether the large observed variance in multiplier estimates can be explained by the national imprint and various author incentives.

Gender Biases in Estimation of Others’ Pain [PDF]
Caregiving and other interpersonal interactions often require accurate perception of others' pain from nonverbal cues, but perceivers may be subject to systematic biases based on gender, race, and other contextual factors. Such biases could contribute to systematic under-recognition and undertreatment of pain. In 2 experiments, we studied the impact of

Biased goiter prevalence estimate
Sir, There are some basic queries related to the article ‘Prevalence of Goiter in Rural Area of Belgaum District, Karnataka’(1). In the introduction the authors should have made some mention of the magnitude of the problem in Karnataka from earlier studies or should have informed that no such study is available.

The use of biased estimators can be found in some historically and up to now important tools in statistical data analysis. In this paper their replacement with unbiased estimators at least in the case of the estimator of the population standard deviation

An unbiased estimator with prior information
The ordinary least square (OLS) estimator suffers a breakdown in the presence of multicollinearity. The estimator is still unbiased but possesses a significant variance.

In this paper, we consider the problem of estimating the parameters of a subset selected from p (p ≥ 2) left-truncated Poisson distributions under Stein loss function. Two problems of estimations are considered; average worth and simultaneous estimation.

Pointwise Optimality of Wavelet Density Estimation for Negatively Associated Biased Sample
This paper focuses on the density estimation problem that occurs when the sample is negatively associated and biased. We constructed a block thresholding wavelet estimator to recover the density function from the negatively associated biased sample.
