Consider a random sample (X1, Y1),(X2, Y2), . . . ,(Xn, Yn) where Y | X = x is modeled by a N(β0 + βx, σ2 ) distribution, where β0, β1 and σ 2 are unknown. (a) Prove that the mle of β1 is an unbiased estimator of β1. (b) Prove that the mle of β0 is an unbiased estimator of β0.
4. (24 marks) Suppose that the random variables Yi,..., Yn satisfy Y-B BX,+ Ei, 1-1, , n, where βο and βι are parameters, X1, ,X, are con- stants, and e1,... ,en are independent and identically distributed ran- dom variables with Ei ~ N (0,02), where σ2 is a third unknown pa- rameter. This is the familiar form for a simple linear regression model, where the parameters A, β, and σ2 explain the relationship between a dependent (or response) variable Y...

4. Let Yi, ½, . . . , Yn be a random sample from some pdf/pmf f(y; θ)·Let W be a point estimator h(y, Y2, . . . , Yn) for θ. The bias of W as a point estimator for θ is defined as W Blase(W) = E(W)- The mean square error of W is defined as MSEe(W) = E(W-0)2 (a) Using properties of expected values, and the definition of variance from PSTAT 120A/B, show that MSEe(W) = Vare(W)...

To show an estimator can be consistent without being unbiased or even asymptotically unbiased, consider the following estimation procedure: To estimate the mean of a population with the finite variance σ 2 , we first take a random sample of size n . Then, we randomly draw one of n slips of paper numbered from 1 through n , and • if the number we draw is 2, 3, ··· , or n , we use as our estimator the...

4. Xi ,i = 1, , n are iid N(μ, σ2). (a) Find the MLE of μ, σ2. Are these unbiased estimators of μ and of σ2 respectively? Aside: You can use your result in (b) to justify your answer for the bias part of the MLE estimator of σ2 (b) In this part you will show, despite that the sample variance is an unbiased estimator of σ2, that the sample standard deviation is is a biased estimator of σ....
