Statistics Theory 2022-07-05 v3 Statistics Theory

Abstract

We consider component-wise equivariant estimation of order restricted location/scale parameters of a general bivariate distribution under quite general conditions on underlying distributions and the loss function. This paper unifies various results in the literature dealing with sufficient conditions for finding improvments over arbitrary location/scale equivariant estimators. The usefulness of these results is illustrated through various examples. A simulation study is considered to compare risk performances of various estimators under bivariate normal and independent gamma probability models. A real-life data analysis is also performed to demonstrate applicability of the derived results.
