SummaryThe paper considers estimation of the natural parameter vector or the mean vector from independent distributions each belonging to the one-parameter discrete or absolutely continuous exponential family. The usual estimators (maximum likelihood, minimum variance unbiased or best invariant) are improved simultaneously under various weighted squared error losses.
