Abstract

We consider the family of uniform distributions with range of unit length. The main result of this note asserts that the average variance of any unbiased estimator of the midpoint of the range is not less than (2(n+1))(n+2))-1 and this lower bound is sharp. The proof is based upon a nonregular version of the Cramér-Rao inequality.
