Abstract

Recently Zhang and Brockett extended the framework of‘minimum discrimination information’ (MDI) estimation techniques to include quadratic constraints. They claimed their approach was quite different from the usual Lagrange duality theory. We show that the dual problem obtained by Zhang and Brockett is actually a geometric dual. Hence the quadratically constrained MDI estimation can be enriched by the theory of generalized geometric programming.
