When prior estimates of regression coe cients along with their standard errors or their variance-covariance matrix are available, they can be incorporated into the estimation procedure through minimax linear and mixed regression approaches. It is demonstrated that the mixed regression approach provi
We consider the linear regression model where prior information in the form of linear inequalities restricts the parameter space to a polyhedron. Since the linear minimax estimator has, in general, to be determined numerically, it was proposed to minimize an upper bound of the maximum risk instead.
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
