Question: With a beta prior for the binomial parameter ???? having ???? = ????1(????1 + ????2) and letting n = ????1 + ????2, find E( ????
With a beta prior for the binomial parameter ???? having ???? = ????1∕(????1 + ????2)
and letting n∗ = ????1 + ????2, find E( ̃???? − ????)
2 and express it as a weighted average of [????(1 − ????)]∕n and (???? − ????)
2. Compare this with E( ̂???? − ????)
2, for ̂???? = y.
Evaluate when the Bayes estimator is better and when the ML estimator is better.
