Abstract

In this paper, we derive characterization of admissible and linearly sufficient estimators of a vector of linear estimable functions of parameters in a partitioned linear model. Then, we compare this class of estimators with the class of admissible and linearly sufficient estimators of the same vector of linear parametric functions in a reduced linear model. We show that these classes are equal with probability one.
