Ridge regression estimator: combining unbiased and ordinary ridge regression methods of estimation
Journal Title: Surveys in Mathematics and its Applications - Year 2009, Vol 4, Issue 0
Abstract
Statistical literature has several methods for coping with multicollinearity. This paper introduces a new shrinkage estimator, called modified unbiased ridge (MUR). This estimator is obtained from unbiased ridge regression (URR) in the same way that ordinary ridge regression (ORR) is obtained from ordinary least squares (OLS). Properties of MUR are derived. Results on its matrix mean squared error (MMSE) are obtained. MUR is compared with ORR and URR in terms of MMSE. These results are illustrated with an example based on data generated by Hoerl and Kennard (1975).

The paper studies the seasonal time series as elements of a (finite dimensional) Hilbert space and proves that it is always better to consider a trend together with a seasonal component even the time series seams not to...
Unequal access to public healthcare facilities: theory and measurement revisited
Adequate coverage and efficiency of public health services are high priorities for sustainable growth and development. In many countries, public healthcare continues to fall short of demand, and remains unevenly distribu...
