The papers are grouped into four parts, each part representing an area in which Professor Judge has made a significant contribution. The authors have all benefited in some way, directly or indirectly, through an association with George Judge and his work.
The three papers in Part I are concerned with various aspects of pre-test and Stein-rule estimation. Part II contains applications of Bayesian methodology, new developments in Bayesian methodology, and an overview of Bayesian econometrics. The papers in Part III comprise new developments in time-series analysis, improved estimation and Markov chain analysis. The final part on spatial equilibrium modeling contains papers that had their origins from Professor Judge's pioneering work in the 60's.
Pre-Test and Stein-Rule Estimation. The Effects of Extrapolation on Minimax Stein-Rule Prediction (R.C. Hill, T.B. Fomby). Risk and Power for Inequality Pre-Test Estimators: General Case in Two Dimensions (T.A. Yancey, R. Bohrer). The Exact Distribution of a Simple Pre-Test Estimator (D.E.A. Giles).
