Sequential minimum risk point estimation (MRPE) methodology for a normal mean under Linex loss plus sampling cost: First-order and second-order asymptotics. Issue 4 (2nd October 2019) - Mukhopadhyay, Nitis
Abstract: We have designed a sequential minimum risk point estimation (MRPE) strategy for the unknown mean of a normal population having its variance unknown too. This is developed under a Linex loss plus linear cost of sampling. A number of important asymptotic first-order and asymptotic second-order properties' characteristics have been developed and proved thoroughly. Extensive sets of simulations tend to validate nearly all of these asymptotic properties for small to medium to large optimal fixed sample sizes.
