In estimating a bounded normal mean, it is known that the maximum likelihood estimator is inadmissible for squared error loss function. In this paper, we discuss the admissibility for other loss functions. We prove that the maximum likelihood estimator is admissible under absolute error loss.
The asymptotic covariance matrix of the maximum likelihood estimator for the log-linear model is given for a general class of conditional Poisson distributions which include the unconditional Poisson, multinomial and product-multinomial, aa special cases. The general conditions are given under which
A vector time series model with long-memory dependence is introduced. It is assumed that, at each time point, the observations are equi-correlated. The model is based on a fractionally differenced autoregressive process (long-memory) adjoined to a Gaussian sequence with constant autocorrelation. The
