Description
Summary:According to existing literature, the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimators are not the best in presence of multicollinearity. The inability of OLS estimators against multicollinearity has paved the way for the development of various ridge type estimators for circumventing the problem of multicollinearity. In this paper improved two-parameter ridge (ITPR) estimators are proposed. A simulation study is used to evaluate the performance of proposed estimators based on minimum mean squared error (MSE) criterion. The simulative results reveal that, based on minimum MSE, ITPR2 was the most efficient estimator compared to the considered estimators in the study. Finally, a real-life dataset is analyzed to demonstrate the applications of the proposed estimators and also checked their efficacy for mitigation of multicollinearity. © 2024
