Generalizations of James-Stein Estimators Under Spherical Symmetry
球对称分布下 James–Stein 估计量的推广
This paper is primarily concerned with extending the results of Stein to spherically symmetric distributions. Specifically, when $X \sim f(\|X - \theta\|^2)$, we investigate conditions under which estimators of the form $X + ag(X)$ dominate $X$ for loss functions $\|\delta - \theta\|^2$ and loss functions which are concave in $\|\delta - \theta\|^2$. Additionally, if the scale is unknown we investigate estimators of the location parameter of the form $X + aVg(X)$ in two…
