The present paper considers the testing of unit root hypothesis for an autoregressive model with polynomial trend under Bayesian framework. Under the unit root hypothesis the trend component does not vanish completely and its degree reduces by one. The posterior odds ratio for the unit root...

In this present paper, considering a linear regression model with nonspherical disturbances, improved confidence sets for the regression coefficients vector are developed using the Stein rule estimators. We derive the large-sample approximations for the coverage probabilities and the expected...

In this paper, we consider a family of feasible generalised double k-class estimators in a linear regression model with non-spherical disturbances. We derive the large sample asymptotic distribution of the proposed family of estimators and compare its performance with the feasible generalized...

The paper develops a general Bayesian framework for robust linear static panel data models using ε-contamination. A two-step approach is employed to derive the conditional type-II maximum likelihood (ML-II) posterior distribution of the coefficients and individual effects. The ML-II posterior...

The present paper studies the panel data auto regressive (PAR) time series model for testing the unit root hypothesis. The posterior odds ratio (POR) is derived under appropriate prior assumptions and then empirical analysis is carried out for testing the unit root hypothesis of Net Asset Value...

In this article, a family of feasible generalized double k-class estimator in a linear regression model with non-spherical disturbances is considered. The performance of this estimator is judged with feasible generalized least-squares and feasible generalized Stein-rule estimators under balanced...
