Let $pi_1$ and $pi_2$ be two independent populations, where the population $pi_i$ follows a bivariate normal distribution with unknown mean vector $boldsymbol{theta}^{(i)}$ and common known variance-covariance matrix $Sigma$, $i=1,2$. The present paper is focused on estimating a characteristic $theta_{textnormal{y}}^S$ of the selected bivariate normal population, using a LINEX loss function. A natural selection rule is used for achieving the aim of selecting the best bivariate normal population. Some natural-type estimators and Bayes estimator (using a conjugate prior) of $theta_{textnormal{y}}^S$ are presented. An admissible subclass of equivariant estimators, using the LINEX loss function, is obtained. Further, a sufficient condition for improving the competing estimators of $theta_{textnormal{y}}^S$ is derived. Using this sufficient condition, several estimators improving upon the proposed natural estimators are obtained. Further, a real data example is provided for illustration purpose. Finally, a comparative study on the competing estimators of $theta_{text{y}}^S$ is carried-out using simulation.
Consider estimating the n by p matrix of means of an n by p matrix of independent normally distributed observations with constant variance, where the performance of an estimator is judged using a p by p matrix quadratic error loss function. A matrix
In the Gaussian linear regression model (with unknown mean and variance), we show that the standard confidence set for one or two regression coefficients is admissible in the sense of Joshi (1969). This solves a long-standing open problem in mathemat
Bayesian methods are developed for the multivariate nonparametric regression problem where the domain is taken to be a compact Riemannian manifold. In terms of the latter, the underlying geometry of the manifold induces certain symmetries on the mult
We investigate predictive density estimation under the $L^2$ Wasserstein loss for location families and location-scale families. We show that plug-in densities form a complete class and that the Bayesian predictive density is given by the plug-in den
A sum of observations derived by a simple random sampling design from a population of independent random variables is studied. A procedure finding a general term of Edgeworth asymptotic expansion is presented. The Lindeberg condition of asymptotic no
