This paper deals with the problem of estimating an arbitrary piecewise continuous function of the parameter under squared error loss in the one parameter exponential family. Using Blyth's(1951) method sufficient conditions are given for the admissibility of (possibly generalized Bayes) estimators. Also, some examples are provided for normal, binomial, and gamma distributions.

We propose some methods to obtain optimal thresholds and classification functions by using various cutoff criterion based on the bivariate ROC curve that represents bivariate cumulative distribution functions. The false positive rate and false negative rate are calculated with these classification functions for bivariate normal distributions.

In this paper we extend Kim and Pollard's cube root asymptotics to other rates of convergence, to establish an asymptotic theory for a multidimensional mode estimator based on uniform kernel with shrinking bandwidths. We obtain rates of convergence depending on shrinking rates of bandwidth and non-normal limit distributions. Optimal decreasing rates of bandwidth are discussed.

Moments of skew t random vectors and their quadratic forms are derived. It is shown that the moments of the sample autocovariance function and of the sample variogram estimator do not depend on a skewness parameter.

In this paper, we develop the Jeffreys' prior, reference priors and the probability matching priors for the intraclass correlation coefficient of a symmetric normal distribution. We next verify propriety of posterior distributions under those noninformative priors. We examine whether reference priors satisfy the probability matching criterion.

We prove (at least empirically) that some forms of the scaled residuals calculated from i.i.d. multivariate normal random vectors are ancillary. We further show that, if the scaled residuals are ancillary, then they have the same distribution whatever form of rotation is rosed to remove sample correlations.

One proposal is made for constructing nonparametric estimator of slope parameters in a regression model under symmetric error distributions. This estimator is based on the use of idea of Johns for estimating the center of the symmetric distribution together with the idea of regression quantiles and regression trimmed mean. This nonparametric estimator and some other L-estimators are studied by Monte Carlo.

The purpose of this paper is to simplify and study the asymptotic distribution of the dimensionality estimators in discriminant analysis based on Akaike's and Mallows' methods for samples from a multivariate distribution with finite fourth moments.

Wavelets constitute a new orthogonal system which has direct application in density estimation. We introduce a brief wavelet density estimation and summarize some asymptotic results. An application to mixture normal distributions is implemented with S-Plus.

Bayesian procedures are in vogue to revise the parameter estimates of the forecasting model in the light of actual time series data. In this paper, we study the Bayes forecast for demand and the risk when (a) 'noise' and (b) mean demand rate in a constant process model have moderately non-normal probability distributions.
