摘要
Under quadratic loss, a class of improved estimators for the scale parameter of an exponential distribution with unknown location is constructed. The method is analogous to Maruyama's (Minimax Estimators of a Normal Variance. Metrika 1998, 48, 209-214) construction for the variance of a normal distribution.
