On Bayes sequential estimation of location parameter of unsmooth density

M. S. Ermakov

Saint-Petersburg State University

Abstract: We consider the problem of sequential estimation of location parameter for the density having irregular behaviour in some points (discontinuities, infinite derivatives). Thus the density has no finite Fisher information. In this case the sequential estimation is usually “essentially better” then the estimation with the fixed sample size. In the paper we prove asymptotic efficiency of Bayes plans of sequential estimation and find their limit distributions.
