SEQUENTIAL ESTIMATION OF THE SQUARE OF THE RAYLEIGH PARAMETER | Science Publications

摘要

> The problem addressed is that of sequentially estimating the square of the parameter of the Rayleigh distribution, subject to a weighted squared loss plus cost of sampling. We propose a sequential procedure and provide a second-order asymptotic expansion for the incurred regret. It is seen that the asymptotic regret is negative for a range of values of the parameter.
