When evaluating how the variance of an estimator behaves as the sample size grows, we can consider the common case of the sample mean as an estimator of a population mean.
Option 1: True. In many standard settings, especially for the estimator of E[Y] at a fixed point (or the mean estimator derived from i.i.d. samples), the variance typically decreases with increasing n, often at a rate proportional to 1/n. This is a consequence of the central limit theorem and basic variance prope......Login to view full explanation登录即可查看完整答案

Consider a population with mean μ and variance σ2<∞. Assume the following two estimators ˆ μ 1 and ˆ μ 2 for the mean of the population μ, with the following expected values and variances E( ˆ μ 1)=μ;V( ˆ μ 1)=5; E( ˆ μ 1)=μ+1;V( ˆ μ 2)=2. We also know that the covariance between the two estimators is COV( ˆ μ 1, ˆ μ 2)=−1. Now consider a new estimator that combines the two previous ones ˆ μ 3= 1 3 ˆ μ 1+ 2 3 ˆ μ 2. Then the variance V( ˆ μ 3) of ˆ μ 3 is
Consider a population with mean 𝜇 and variance 𝜎 2 < ∞ . You are comparing two estimators 𝜇 ̂ 1 and 𝜇 ̂ 2 for the mean of the population 𝜇 , with the following expected values and variances 𝐸 ( 𝜇 ̂ 1 ) = 𝜇 ; 𝑉 ( 𝜇 ̂ 1 ) = 9 ; 𝐸 ( 𝜇 ̂ 1 ) = 𝜇 + 1 ; 𝑉 ( 𝜇 ̂ 2 ) = 1 . We also know that the covariance between the two estimators is 𝐶 𝑂 𝑉 ( 𝜇 ̂ 1 , 𝜇 ̂ 2 ) = − 2 . Now consider a new estimator that combines the two previous ones 𝜇 ̂ 3 = 1 4 𝜇 ̂ 1 + 3 4 𝜇 ̂ 2 . Then the variance 𝑉 ( 𝜇 ̂ 3 ) of 𝜇 ̂ 3 is
Consider the likelihood of an i.i.d. sample from a Bernoulli population with parameter 𝑝 𝐿 ( 𝑥 1 , . . . , 𝑥 𝑇 ) = ∏ 𝑡 = 1 𝑇 𝑝 𝑥 𝑡 ( 1 − 𝑝 ) 1 − 𝑥 𝑡 . If you estimate the parameter 𝑝 using a Maximum Likelihood estimator, you obtain the point estimate 𝑝 ̂ = 1 𝑇 ∑ 𝑡 = 1 𝑇 𝑥 𝑡 , which corresponds to the sample mean. We know that for a Bernoulli random variable the expected value and the variance are 𝔼 ( 𝑥 𝑡 ) = 𝑝 , 𝕍 ( 𝑥 𝑡 ) = 𝑝 ( 1 − 𝑝 ) . Using this information, what is the variance of the estimator 𝕍 ( 𝑝 ̂ ) ?
