Bayes estimation of the mean of a multivariate normal distribution is considered under quadratic loss. We show that, when particular spherical priors are used, the superharmonicity of the square root ...

Bayesian estimation methods form a dynamic branch of statistical inference, utilising Bayes’ theorem to update probabilities in light of new evidence. This framework combines prior knowledge with ...
