Abstract

The simultaneous estimation of a mean vector is explored by reparametrizing it into its direction and norm components. A type of Pythagorean relation is employed to construct an estimate of the norm component, which results in solving an ordinary amerenuai equation, me james-Diem estimator is snown to be optimum in a class of estimators derived from general solutions of the ordinary differential equation. A new Stein-type estimator in the case of the inverse Gaussian distribution is constructed.
