This example will show that, in a sample X 1, X 2 of size 2 from a normal distribution with known variance, the statistic X 1 + X 2 is complete and sufficient. Suppose X 1, X 2 are independent, identically distributed random variables, normally distributed with expectation θ and variance 1. The sum ((,)) = + is a complete statistic for θ.
The theorem states that any estimator that is unbiased for a given unknown quantity and that depends on the data only through a complete, sufficient statistic is the unique best unbiased estimator of that quantity. The Lehmann–Scheffé theorem is named after Erich Leo Lehmann and Henry Scheffé, given their two early papers. [2] [3]
Now, for (1) to reject H 0 with a probability of at least 1 − β when H a is true (i.e. a power of 1 − β), and (2) reject H 0 with probability α when H 0 is true, the following is necessary: If z α is the upper α percentage point of the standard normal distribution, then
Let X 1, X 2, ..., X n be independent, identically distributed normal random variables with mean μ and variance σ 2.. Then with respect to the parameter μ, one can show that ^ =, the sample mean, is a complete and sufficient statistic – it is all the information one can derive to estimate μ, and no more – and
Given any random variables X 1, X 2, ..., X n, the order statistics X (1), X (2), ..., X (n) are also random variables, defined by sorting the values (realizations) of X 1, ..., X n in increasing order. When the random variables X 1, X 2, ..., X n form a sample they are independent and identically distributed. This is the case treated below.
Jul. 7—Issue 1, up for a statewide vote on Aug. 8, proposes making it harder to pass a constitutional amendment and making it harder for citizen-initiated amendments to get on the ballot in the ...
Oct. 15—OHIO — As Ohioans head to the polls this election season, a topic of discussion is Issue 1, a proposed constitutional amendment to overhaul the state's redistricting process. Both ...
In statistics, the 68–95–99.7 rule, also known as the empirical rule, and sometimes abbreviated 3sr or 3 σ, is a shorthand used to remember the percentage of values that lie within an interval estimate in a normal distribution: approximately 68%, 95%, and 99.7% of the values lie within one, two, and three standard deviations of the mean ...
