  • The empirical Bayes linear loss two-action problem is studied. An empirical Bayes test $\delta$$_{n}$ $^{*}$ is proposed. It is shown that $\delta$$_{n}$ $^{*}$ is asymptotically optimal in the sense that its regret converges to zero at a rate $n^{-1}$ over a class of priors and the rate $n^{-1}$ is the optimal rate of convergence of empirical Bayes tests.sts.

  • Design of effective cooperative jamming (CJ) algorithm is studied in this paper to maximize the achievable secrecy rate when the total transmit power of the source and multiple trusted terminals is constrained. Recently, the same problem was studied in [1] and an optimal algorithm was proposed involving a one-dimensional exhaustive searching.However, the computational complexity of such exhaustive searching could be very high, which may limit the practical use of the optimal algorithm. We propose an asymptotically optimal algorithm, involving only a fast line searching, which can guarantee to achieve the global optimality when the total transmit power goes to infinity. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed asymptotically optimal algorithm essentially gives the same performance as the algorithm in [1, (44)] but with much lower computational complexity.

  • In this paper we consider empirical Bayes estimation of the hazard rate and survival probabilities with right censored data under the assumption that the hazard function is constant over the period of observation and the prior distribution is gamma. We provide an estimator of the first derivative of the prior moment generating function that converges at each point to the true value in $L_2$ and use it to obtain, easy to compute, asymptotically optimal estimators under the squared error loss function.

  • We consider two semiparametric regression lines where the density of the error terms are unknown. We give simultaneous estimatros of the differences of intercepts and slopes which turn out to be asymptotically minimax as well as efficient in semiparametric sense.

  • This paper discusses the asymptotic efficiency of estimators for optimal portfolios when returns are vector-valued non-Gaussian stationary processes. We give the asymptotic distribution of portfolio estimators ${\hat{g}}$ for non-Gaussian dependent return processes. Next we address the problem of asymptotic efficiency for the class of estimators ${\hat{g}}$ First, it is shown that there are some cases when the asymptotic variance of ${\hat{g}}$ under non-Gaussianity can be smaller than that under Gaussianity. The result shows that non-Gaussianity of X(t) does not always affect worse. Second, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for ${\hat{g}}$ to be asymptotically efficient when the return process is Gaussian, which shows that ${\hat{g}}$ is not asymptotically efficient generally. From this point of view we propose to use maximum likelihood type estimators for g, which are asymptotically efficient. We examine our approach numerically.

  • In this paper, we use measure theory for considering asymptotically stable of an autonomous system [1] of first order nonlinear ordinary differential equations(ODE's). First, we define a nonlinear infinite-horizon optimal control problem related to the ODE. Then, by a suitable change of variable, we transform the problem to a finite-horizon nonlinear optimal control problem. Then, the problem is modified into one consisting of the minimization of a linear functional over a set of positive Radon measures. The optimal measure is approximated by a finite combination of atomic measures and the problem converted to a finite-dimensional linear programming problem. The solution to this linear programming problem is used to find a piecewise-constant control, and by using the approximated control signals, we obtain the approximate trajectories and the error functional related to it. Finally the approximated trajectories and error functional is used to for considering asymptotically stable of the original problem.

  • Yoo and Cook (2007) developed an optimal sufficient dimension reduction methodology for the conditional mean in multivariate regression and it is known that their method is asymptotically optimal and its test statistic has a chi-squared distribution asymptotically under the null hypothesis. To check the effect of dimension used in estimation on regression coefficients and the explanatory power of the conditional mean model in multivariate regression, we applied their method to several simulated data sets with various dimensions. A small simulation study showed that it is quite helpful to search for an appropriate dimension for a given data set if we use the asymptotic test for the dimension as well as results from the estimation with several dimensions simultaneously.

  • The paper considers nonparametric empirical Bayes estimation of residual survival function at age t using a Dirichlet process prior V(a). Empirical Bayes estimators are proposed for the case where both the function ${\alpha}$(0, $\chi$] and the size a(R$\^$+/) are unknown. It is shown that the proposed empirical Bayes estimators are asymptotically optimal at a rate n$\^$-1/, where n is the number of past data available for the present estimation problem. Therefore, the result of Lahiri and Park (1988) in which a(R$\^$+/) is assumed to be known and a rate n$\^$-1/ is achieved, is extended to a(R$\^$+/) unknown case.

  • This paper presents a procedure for the time-scale separation and a design method for the sub-optimal composite regulator and Kalman filter of the large-scale discrete stochastic system with two time-scale properties. Provided that the fast sub-system is asymptotically stable, the reduced-order regulator and Kalman filter for the slow sub-system with dominant modes is designed as a sub-optimal regulator for the system.
