On the Liu and almost unbiased Liu estimators in the presence of multicollinearity with heteroscedastic or correlated errors
Journal Title: Surveys in Mathematics and its Applications - Year 2009, Vol 4, Issue 0
Abstract
This paper introduces a new biased estimator, namely, almost unbiased Liu estimator (AULE) of β for the multiple linear regression model with heteroscedastics and/or correlated errors and suffers from the problem of multicollinearity. The properties of the proposed estimator is discussed and the performance over the generalized least squares (GLS) estimator, ordinary ridge regression (ORR) estimator (Trenkler, 1984), and Liu estimator (LE) (Kaçiranlnar, 2003) in terms of matrix mean square error criterion are investigated. The optimal values of d for Liu and almost unbiased Liu estimators have been obtained. Finally, a simulation study has been conducted which indicated that under certain conditions on d, the proposed estimator performed well compared to GLS, ORR and LE estimators.

Fixed points for multivalued contractions on a metric space
The purpose of this paper is to prove a fixed point theorem for multivalued operators and a fixed point theorem for multivalued weakly Picard operators in the terms of τ -distance.
Neumann system and hyperelliptic al functions
This article shows that the Neumann dynamical system is described well in terms of the Weierstrass hyperelliptic al functions. The descriptions are very primitive; their proofs are provided only by residual computations...
Function valued metric spaces
In this paper we introduce the notion of an ℱ-metric, as a function valued distance mapping, on a set X and we investigate the theory of ℱ-metrics paces. We show that every metric space may be viewed...
