Keywords:
parametric estimation; linear model with variances depending on the mean value parameters; locally best linear-quadratic unbiased estimator (LBLQUE)
Summary:
The paper deals with the linear model with uncorrelated observations. The dispersions of the values observed are linear-quadratic functions of the unknown parameters of the mean (measurements by devices of a given class of precision). Investigated are the locally best linear-quadratic unbiased estimators as improvements of locally best linear unbiased estimators in the case that the design matrix has none, one or two linearly dependent rows.
