(a) Suppose that πœƒΜ‚is an estimator for a parameter πœƒ and 𝐸[πœƒΜ‚] = π‘Žπœƒ + 𝑏 for some nonzero constant π‘Ž and 𝑏. (i) Determine the biasness of the estimator. (ii) Find a function of πœƒΜ‚, say πœƒΜ‚βˆ— that is an unbiased estimator for πœƒ. (b) Given that a 𝑋1,𝑋2, … , 𝑋𝑛 denoted a random sample from an exponential distribution with parameter 𝛽 = 1 /πœƒ . Consider two estimators πœƒΜ‚1 = 𝑋̅ π‘Žπ‘›π‘‘ πœƒΜ‚2= [𝑋1 + (𝑛 βˆ’ 1)𝑋n] /𝑛 Show that both πœƒΜ‚1 and πœƒΜ‚2 are unbiased estimator of πœƒ. (c) If 𝑋1, 𝑋2, … 𝑋10 is random sample of size 𝑛 from a gamma distribution with parameter 𝛼 and 𝛽. (i) Use method of moment to estimate 𝛼 and 𝛽. (ii) Determine the maximum likelihood estimate of 𝛽 if 𝛼 is known.
