| Summary: | In this study, we use the idea of the hierarchical model (HM) to estimate an unknown parameter of the hierarchical Poisson-Gamma model using the E-Bayesian (E-B) theory. We propose the idea of hierarchical probability function instead of the traditional hierarchical prior density function. We aim to infer E-B estimates with respect to the conjugate Gamma prior distribution along with the E-posterior risks on the basis of different symmetric and asymmetric loss functions (LFs) under restricted and unrestricted parameter spaces using uniform hyperprior. Whereas, E-B estimators are compared with maximum likelihood estimators (MLEs) using mean squared error (MSE). Monte Carlo simulations are prosecuted to study the efficiency of E-B estimators empirically. It is shown that the LFs under a restricted parameter space dominate to estimate the parameter of the hierarchical Poisson-Gamma model. It is also found that the E-B estimators are more precise than MLEs, and Stein’s LF has the least E-PR. Moreover, the application of outcomes to a real-life example has been made for analysis, comparison, and motivation. |
