To analyze the isotonic regression problem for normal means, it is usual to assume that all variances are known or unknown but equal. This paper then studies this problem in the case that there are no conditions imposed on the variances. Suppose that we have data drawn from k independent normal popu
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.
