Abstract
In this paper, we compare two estimators, the RLE (restricted Liu estimator) and the RLSE (restricted least squares estimator) of parameters in linear models under Gauss–Markov models. Using generalized inverse of matrices, we found some equivalency conditions for the superiority of the RLE with respect to the MSE criterion.
