Abstract

In this paper, a generalized difference-based estimator is introduced for the vector parameter \(\beta \) in partially linear model when the errors are correlated. A generalized difference-based almost unbiased ridge estimator is defined for the vector parameter \(\beta \). Under the linear stochastic constraint \(r=R\beta +e\), a new generalized difference-based weighted mixed almost unbiased ridge estimator is proposed. The performance of this estimator over the generalized difference-based weighted mixed estimator, the generalized difference-based estimator, and the generalized difference-based almost unbiased ridge estimator in terms of the mean square error matrix criterion is investigated. Then, a method to select the biasing parameter k and non-stochastic weight \(\omega \) is considered. The efficiency properties of the new estimator is illustrated by a simulation study. Finally, the performance of the new estimator is evaluated for a real dataset.
