ESTIMATION OF THE OFFSPRING DISTRIBUTION AND THE MEAN VECTOR FOR A BISEXUAL GALTON-WATSON PROCESS

Miguel González, Manuel Molina, Manuel Mota · Communication in Statistics- Theory and Methods · 2001

In this paper, we obtain estimators for the offspring distribution and the mean vector of a bisexual Galton-Watson process and derive, for these estimators, some conditional moments, given non extinction, and unconditional moments, asymptotic properties and confidence intervals. As an illustration, we consider an simulated example.
