Lower bounds to the accuracy of sample maximum estimation
S. Y. Novak Middlesex University, MUBS, The Burroughs, London NW44BT, UK
Abstract:
We derive lower bounds for sup-norm losses of estimators of the distribution function of a sample maximum, and show that their consistent estimation in a general situation is impossible.
Keywords:
Sample maximum, consistent estimation, lower bounds.
