Efficiencies of the maximum pseudolikelihood estimator and a number of related estimators for the case-cohort sampling design in the proportional hazards regression model are studied. The asymptotic information and lower bound for estimating the parametric regression parameter are calculated...

Suppose you observe a finite sequence of random variables from some known joint distribution F, you can stop the process at any time and your profit is the last observed value. If an optimal stopping rule is used, denote the expected profit by VF. What kind of ordering on multivariate...
