Closed-form estimators for an exponential family derived from likelihood equations

Methodology 2024-05-24 v1

Abstract

In this paper, we derive closed-form estimators for the parameters of some probability distributions belonging to the exponential family. A bootstrap bias-reduced version of these proposed closed-form estimators are also derived. A Monte Carlo simulation is performed for the assessment of the estimators. The results are seen to be quite favorable to the proposed bootstrap bias-reduce estimators.
