Abstract
In this paper, we consider the problem of parameter estimating for a family of exponential distributions. We develop the improved estimation method, which generalized the James--Stein approach for a wide class of distributions. The proposed estimator dominates the classical maximum likelihood estimator under the quadratic risk. The estimating procedure is applied to special cases of distributions. The numerical simulations results are given.
