In this article, we consider the problem of testing the equality of mean vectors of dimension p of several groups with a common unknown non-singular covariance matrix Σ, based on N independent observation vectors where N may be less than the dimension p. This problem, known in the literature as...

Bayes estimates are derived in multivariate linear models with unknown distribution. The prior distribution is defined using a Dirichlet prior for the unknown error distribution and a ormal-Wishart distribution for the parameters. The posterior distribution for the parameters is determined and...

In estimation of a matrix of regression coefficients in a multivariate linear regression model, this paper shows that minimax and shrinkage estimators under a normal distribution remain robust under an elliptically contoured distribution. The robustness of the improvement is established for both...

In this paper, a general form ofM-estimation is proposed and some asymptotics are investigated. The model covers all linear and nonlinear regression models, AR time series, EIVR models, etc. as its special cases. The dispersion functions may be convex or differences of convex functions, the...
