Abstract

Shrinkage estimation has become a basic tool in the computational analysis of high-dimensional data. Historically and conceptually a key development toward this was the discovery of the inadmissibility of the usual estimator of a multivariate normal mean. This study explores the problem of estimating the square of location parameter of an exponential distribution when the coefficient of variation is known without error. Several estimators have been proposed with their properties. The best unbiased estimator as well least minimum mean square error (MMSE) estimator has been identified among several estimators. Numerical illustrations are given in the support of the present study.
