Shrinkage Estimation of the Realized Relationship Matrix [PDF]
Abstract The additive relationship matrix plays an important role in mixed model prediction of breeding values. For genotype matrix X (loci in columns), the product XX′ is widely used as a realized relationship matrix, but the scaling of this matrix is ambiguous.

Efficient Post-Shrinkage Estimation Strategies in High-Dimensional Cox’s Proportional Hazards Models [PDF]
Regularization methods such as LASSO, adaptive LASSO, Elastic-Net, and SCAD are widely employed for variable selection in statistical modeling. However, these methods primarily focus on variables with strong effects while often overlooking weaker signals,

Shrinkage estimation of non-negative mean vector with unknown covariance under balance loss [PDF]
Parameter estimation in multivariate analysis is important, particularly when parameter space is restricted. Among different methods, the shrinkage estimation is of interest.

Shrinkage Algorithms for MMSE Covariance Estimation [PDF]
We address covariance estimation in the sense of minimum mean-squared error (MMSE) for Gaussian samples. Specifically, we consider shrinkage methods which are suitable for high dimensional problems with a small number of samples (large p small n). First, we improve on the Ledoit-Wolf (LW) method by conditioning on a sufficient statistic.

Estimation of a Parallel Stress-strength Model Based on the Inverse Kumaraswamy Distribution
The reliability of the stress-strength model attracted many statisticians for several years owing to its applicability in different and diverse parts such as engineering, quality control, and economics. In this paper, the system reliability estimation in

Meta-analyses combine the estimators of individual means to estimate the common mean of a population. However, the common mean could be undefined or uninformative in some scenarios where individual means are “ordered” or “sparse”.

Shrinking the Variance in Experts’ “Classical” Weights Used in Expert Judgment Aggregation
Mathematical aggregation of probabilistic expert judgments often involves weighted linear combinations of experts’ elicited probability distributions of uncertain quantities. Experts’ weights are commonly derived from calibration experiments based on the
