- If $Var(\hat{\theta})\rightarrow 0$ as $n \rightarrow 0$, then $\hat{\theta}$ is said to be
- If $E(\hat{\theta})=\theta$, then $\hat{\theta}$ is said to be

- For two estimators $T_1=t_1(X_1,X_2,\cdots,X_n)$ and $T_2=t_2(X_1,X_2,\cdots,X_n)$ then estimator $t_1$ is defined to be $R_{{t_1}(\theta)}\leq R_{{t_2}(\theta)}$ for all $\theta$ in $\Theta$
- Let $X_1,X_2,\cdots,X_n$ be a random sample from the density $f(x;\theta)$, where $\theta$ may be vector. If the conditional distribution of $X_1,X_2,\cdots,X_n$ given $S=s$ does not depend on $\theta$ for any value of $s$ of $S$, then statistic is called.
- $Var_\theta (T) \geq \frac{[\tau'(\theta)]^2}{nE[{\frac{\partial}{\partial \theta}log f((X;\theta)}^2]}$, where $T=t(X_1,X_2,\cdots, X_n)$ is an unbiased estimator of $\tau(\theta)$. The above inequality is called
- Let $X_1,X_2,\cdots,X_n$ be a random sample from a density $f(x|\theta)$, where $\theta$ is a value of the random variable $\Theta$ with known density $g_\Theta(\theta)$.
