Abstract:

In this paper, we consider the estimation of the parameter (??) in a classical linear regression model by combining the ridge and Liu estimators. The biased and almost unbiased two-parameter estimators are proposed. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the superiority of the proposed estimators over the existing estimators in terms of matrix mean squared error are derived. Besides, we suggest the algorithm for choosing the shrinkage parameters (?? & ??) for newly developed estimators. The performance of the estimators is gauged through Monte Carlo simulation and empirical application.
