Abstract

This paper proposes a new generalized extended balanced loss function (GEBLF). Admissibility of linear estimators is characterized in the General Gauss-Markov model with respect to GEBLF. The sufficient and necessary conditions for linear estimators to be admissible with a dispersion matrix possibly singular among the set of linear estimators are obtained. It is stated that the results obtained under special conditions lead to the results known in the literature.
