Minimum Lq‐distance estimators for non‐normalized parametric models
From MaRDI portal
Publication:6059515
Abstract: We propose and investigate a new estimation method for the parameters of models consisting of smooth density functions on the positive half axis. The procedure is based on a recently introduced characterization result for the respective probability distributions, and is to be classified as a minimum distance estimator, incorporating as a distance function the -norm. Throughout, we deal rigorously with issues of existence and measurability of these implicitly defined estimators. Moreover, we provide consistency results in a common asymptotic setting, and compare our new method with classical estimators for the exponential-, the Rayleigh-, and the Burr Type XII distribution in Monte Carlo simulation studies. We also assess the performance of different estimators for non-normalized models in the context of an exponential-polynomial family.
