A Class of Best Linear Unbiased Estimators (BLUE) for a Class of Super-population Models

摘要

Under a general super-population model representing a class of super-population models, a corresponding class of best linear unbiased estimators (BLUE) has been found and some previous results available in the literature have been shown to be the special cases of the present study. Further, under a more general super-population model representing a wider class of super-population models, a corresponding wider class of best linear unbiased estimators is also investigated.
