Therefore, we extend the Liu estimator. Under the mean square error(MSE), the jackknifed estimator is superior to the Liu estimator and the jackknifed ridge estimator. We also give a method to select the biasing parameter for d. Furthermore, a numerical example is given to illustvate these theoretical results.展开更多
