Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study addressed a high-dimensional normal distribution model with small sample size and considered shrinkage estimation based on singular Wishart matrices from a decision-theoretic point of view. Some new estimators of covariance matrix were proposed under a Stein-type loss. Also, this study considered the problem of estimating predictive densities related to estimation of a normal mean matrix, and succeeded in deriving proper Bayes minimax predictive densities relative to the Kullback-Leibler loss.
