Abstract
In this paper, a new way of estimation of single-factor linear regression parameters of symmetrically distributed non-Gaussian errors is proposed. This new approach is based on the Polynomial Maximization Method (PMM) and uses the description of random variables by higher order statistics (moments and cumulants). Analytic expressions that allow to find estimates and analyze their asymptotic accuracy are obtained for the degree of polynomial S = 3. It is shown that the variance of polynomial estimates can be less than the variance of estimates of the ordinary least squares’ method. The increase of accuracy depends on the values of cumulant coefficients of higher order of the random regression errors. The statistical modeling of the Monte Carlo method has been performed. The results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
