One can be regarded as a bound of the point estimation, the other can be regarded as the limit of a bound of the interval estimation. Both coincide in the regular case, but do not necessarily coincide in a non-regular case. Using the limits of relative Renyi entropies, we derive their upper bounds and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the coincidence of the two upper bounds. We also show the attainability of these two bounds in several non-regular location shift families.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-12-05T07:22:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "large deviation bound", "non-regular extensions", "non-regular location shift families", "upper bounds", "regular case" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math.....12076H" } } }
