Robust predictive distributions for exponential families
指数族的稳健预测分布
The bootstrap predictive distribution considered by Harris (1989) is modified by replacing the maximum likelihood estimator of the unknown parameter by its minimum Hellinger distance estimator. The predictive distribution thus obtained is asymptotically superior to the corresponding estimative distribution in terms of the average Kullback-Leibler divergence, when the true distribution is in the natural exponential family. Simulation results are provided for the binomial and…
