Following Lancaster (2002), we propose a strategy to solve the incidental parameter problem. The method is demonstrated under a simple panel Poisson count model. We also extend the strategy to accomodate cases when information orthogonality is unavailable, such as the linear AR(p) panel model....

This paper presents an expository development of Bayesian estimation with substantial emphasis on exact results for the multivariate normal location models with respect to squared error loss. From the time Stein, in 1956, showed the inadmissibility of the best invariant estimator when sampling...

This paper presents a Bayesian significance test for stationarity of a regression equation using the highest posterior density credible set. In addition, a solution to the Behrens- Fisher problem is provided. From a Monte Carlo simulation study, it has been shown that the Bayesian significance...
