Distribution Theory for Glass's Estimator of Effect size and Related Estimators
Glass's estimator of effect size, the sample mean difference divided by the sample standard deviation, is studied in the context of an explicit statistical model. The exact dist...
On the degrees of freedom in shape-restricted regression
For the problem of estimating a regression function, $\\mu$ say,\nsubject to shape constraints, like monotonicity or convexity, it is argued that\nthe divergence of the maximum ...
Empirical Functionals and Efficient Smoothing Parameter Selection
SUMMARY A striking feature of curve estimation is that the smoothing parameter ĥ 0, which minimizes the squared error of a kernel or smoothing spline estimator, is very difficul...
Analyzing bagging
Bagging is one of the most effective computationally intensive procedures to improve on unstable estimators or classifiers, useful especially for high dimensional data set probl...
Estimation of the Mean of a Multivariate Normal Distribution
Estimation of the means of independent normal random variables is considered, using sum of squared errors as loss. An unbiased estimate of risk is obtained for an arbitrary esti...
