Defiitio: qˆ is a cosistet estimator of q(θ), i.e., P θ qˆ(x 1,..., X ) q(θ) if for every E > 0, lim P θ ( q (X 1,..., X ) q(θ) > E) = 0. Example: Cosider P θ such that: E [X 1 θ] = θ q(θ) = θ i=1 X i qˆ = = X Whe is ˆq cosistet for θ? 3 MIT ad Delta Method

Proof of cosistecy of ˆq = X exteds to uiform cosistecy if sup θ Θ σ 2 (θ) M < ( ). Examples Satisfyig ( ) X i i.i.d. Beroulli(θ). X i i.i.d. Normal(µ, σ 2 ), where θ = (µ, σ 2 ) Θ = {θ} = (, + ) [0, M], for fiite M <. 5 MIT ad Delta Method

7 Cosistecy of Plug-I Estimators Plug-I Estimators: Discrete Case Discrete outcome space of size K : X = {x 1,..., x K } X 1,..., X iid P θ, θ Θ, where θ = (p 1,..., p K ) P(X 1 = x k θ) = p k, k = 1,..., K K p k 0 for k = 1,..., K ad p k = 1. Θ = S K (K -dimesioal simplex). Defie the empirical distributio: θˆ = (ˆp 1,..., pˆk ) where i=1 1(X i = x k ) N k pˆk = ˆθ S K. 1 7 MIT ad Delta Method
8 Cosistecy of Plug-I Estimators Propositio/Theorem (5.2.1) Suppose X = (X 1,..., X ) is a radom sample of size from a discrete distributio θ S. The: ˆθ is uiformly cosistet for θ S. For ay cotiuous fuctio q : S R d, qˆ = q(θˆ) is uiformly cosistet for q(θ). Proof: For ay E > 0, P θ ( θˆ θ E) 0. This follows upo otig that: {x : θˆ(x ) θ 2 < E 2 } K k=1{x : (θˆ(x ) θ) k 2 < E 2 /K} So K P({x : θˆ(x ) θ 2 E 2 } k=1 P({x : (θˆ(x ) θ) k 2 E 2 /K} K 1 K 2 k=1 4 /(E2 /K) = 4: 2 8 MIT ad Delta Method
9 Cosistecy of Plug-I Estimators Proof (cotiued): q( ): cotiuous o compact S = q( ) uiformly cotiuous o S. For every E > 0, there exists δ(e) > 0 such that: θ 1 θ 0 < δ(e) = q(θ 1 ) q(θ 0 ) < E, uiformly for all θ 0, θ 1 Θ. It follows that {x : q(θˆ(x)) q(θ) < E} c {x : θˆ θ < δ(e)} c = P θ [ qˆ q(θ) E] P θ [ θˆ θ δ(e)] Note: uiform cosistecy ca be show; see B&D. 9 MIT ad Delta Method
10 Cosistecy of Plug-I Estimators Propositio Suppose: Defie: where The: g = (g 1,..., g d ) : X Y R d. E [ g j (X 1 ) θ] <, for j = 1,..., d, for all θ Θ. m j (θ) E [g j (X 1 ) θ], for j = 1,..., d. q(θ) = h(m(θ)), m(θ) = (m 1 (θ),..., m d (θ)) h : Y R p, is cotiuous. 1 I qˆ = h(ḡ) = h g(x i ) i=1 is a cosistet estimator of q(θ). 10 MIT ad Delta Method

12 Cosistecy of MLEs i Expoetial Family Theorem Suppose: The: P is a caoical expoetial family of rak d geerated by T = (T 1 (X ),..., T d (X )) T. p(x η) = h(x)exp{t(x)η A(η)} E = {η} is ope. X 1,..., X are i.i.d P η P P η [ the MLE ˆη exists] 1. ηˆ is cosistet. 12 MIT ad Delta Method
13 Cosistecy of MLEs i Expoetial Family Proof: ηˆ(x 1,..., X ) exists iff T = 1 T(X i )/ C T o. If η 0 is true, the t 0 = E [T(X 1 ) η 0 ] C T o ad A(η 0 ) = t 0. By defiitio of the iterior of the covex support, there exists δ > 0: S δ = {t : t E η0 [T(X 1 ) < δ} C o. T By the WLLN: I 1 Pη0 T = T(X i ) E η0 [T(X 1 )] i=1 = P η0 T C T o 1. ηˆ exists if it solves A(η) = T, i.e., if T C T o, The map η A(η) is 1-to-1 o C 0 ad cotiuous o E, so T the iverse fuctio A 1 is cotiuous, ad Prop applies. 13 MIT ad Delta Method

If E X 1 4 < ad h (4) <, the h (2) (µ) E [h(x )] = h(µ) [ ] σ2 2 + O( 2 ) For (b), use Lemma with j = 3 (odd) gives 1 E (x µ) 3 D 3 E [ X 1 3 ] = O( 2 ) Note: Asymptotic bias of h(x ) for h(µ) : If h (2) (µ) 1 ) = 0, the O( If h (2) (µ) = 0, the O( 3/2 ) if third-momet fiite ad O( 2 ) if fourth-momet fiite. 18 MIT ad Delta Method 2
