Conditions for superiority of the minimum dispersion estimator over another with respect to the covariance matrix are derived when the vector parameter of a regression model is subject to competing stochastic restrictions. The restrictions may also consist both of a deterministic part and a stochast

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper we propose a new approach for estimating the unknown parameter in the stochastic linear regressive model with stationary ergodic sequence of covariates. Under mild conditions on the joint distribution of the covariate and the error, the estimator constructed is shown to be strongly consistent in two important special cases: (1) The sequence of (variate, covariate) is independent identically distributed (i.i.d.), and (2) the sequence of variates is a stationary autoregressive series. The asymptotical normality is also discussed under more assumptions on the distribution of the covariate.

This paper presents a fully parametric empirical Bayes approach for the analysis of count data, with emphasis on its application to environmental toxicity data. A hierarchical structure for the mean response is developed from a generalized linear model, based on a Poisson distribution. The linear pr
We consider the problem of estimating regression models of two-dimensional random fields. Asymptotic properties of the least squares estimator of the linear regression coefficients are studied for the case where the disturbance is a homogeneous random field with an absolutely continuous spectral dis
