10.5.2 Consistent estimates An estimate a i is consistent if it converges stochastically to a as m becomes large. An explicit statement of consistency is that for every small number,.∈>0,the estimate concentrates on the parameter a as m becomes large limP[o-∈<am<x+∈]→l m→00 or imP[la-al<∈]→l UESTC 11

10.5.4 Estimators based on sufficient statistics Whether the full information is used to estimate a=T()in the? T()is a sufficient statistic for a if the conditional pdf p(yT()),does not depend on a. A method used to determine whether or not an estimate is a sufficient estimate is to check if the Fisher factorization theorem is satisfied. p(h,ynma)=g(T(y,ym),a)h(,ym) Depends only on the Independent of UESTC estimate parameter a 13 parameter a
