Estimation of a common parameter for pooled samples from the uniform distributions

  • Published:
Annals of the Institute of Statistical Mathematics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The problem to estimate a common parameter for the pooled sample from the uniform distributions is discussed in the presence of nuisance parameters. The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and others are compared and it is shown that the MLE based on the pooled sample is not (asymptotically) efficient.
