Admissibility of Linear Predictor in Growth Curve Model with Respect to Inequality Restriction
Ning Zhu · Journal of Southwest China Normal University · 2009
Admissibility of linear predictors of future observations in the growth curve model with respect to inequality restriction are studied.According to the definition of admissible linear predictor and using some properties of matrix,necessary and sufficient conditions for a linear predictor DYF(DYF+M) of KY0L to be admissible in class of homogeneous linear predictors(nonhomogeneous linear predictors) are obtained.They are generalizations of some existing results in literature.
