Mathematics Statistics Power Series Distributions UMVU UMVUE Asymptotic Properties Unbiased Estimation Historically research on inference in power series distributions has focused on maximum likelihood estimation technique due to its asymptotically optimal properties. This work discusses asymptotic results for the uniformly minimum variance unbiased (UMVU) estimation technique. We present its asymptotic distribution. The limiting mean deviation for the UMVU estimator and its rate of convergence are presented. Criteria for the existence of moments of the estimator and the limiting r<sup>th</sup> moment of the absolute deviating for 1 ≦ r < 2 are given. We also present applications to inference in censored power series distributions and a few links to some problems in approximation theory. test 2012-11-16 English text Kent State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1352937611 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=kent1352937611 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
