Feasible Generalized Stein-Rule Restricted Ridge Regression Estimators

Abstract

AbstractSeveral versions of the Stein-rule estimators of the coefficient vector in a linear regression model are proposed in the literature. In the present paper, we propose new feasible generalized Stein-rule restricted ridge regression estimators to examine multicollinearity and autocorrelation problems simultaneously for the general linear regression model, when certain additional exact restrictions are placed on these coefficients. Moreover, a Monte Carlo simulation experiment is performed to investigate the performance of the proposed estimator over the others.
