摘要
The paper develops multivariate limited translation empirical Bayes estimators of the normal mean vector which serve as a compromise between the empirical Bayes and the maximum likelihood estimators. These compromise estimators perform better than the regular empirical Bayes estimators, in a frequentist sense, when there is wide departure of an individual observation from the grand average.
