B1. Suppose we have X₁, X2,... Xn, which are i.i.d. and come from the uniform distribution
Uniform(μ-n, μ+n), n>0;O= (µ, n)
(a) Use the Method of Moments to estimate μl and n.
(b) Determine whether the estimate derived by the Method of Moments is biased for
μ.
(c) Use the Maximum Likelihood method to estimate and n. Use the notation:
X(1) = min(X₁, X2, ..., Xn) and X(n)
=
max(X₁, X2,..., Xn)
(d) It can be derived that
fx(1)(x)
n
=
χεμ - ημ + n],
χε[μ - ημ + η]
