Abstract

Let the probability density of observations be denoted by φ(x | θ), where x stands for the variables and θ for the parameters. A function t of the observations is called an unbiased estimate of the function ψ(θ) of the parameters if ∫ tødx=ψ(θ) (1) where dx stands for the product of differentials.
