Abstract

Robust Bayesian analysis is connected with the effect of changing a prior within a class Γ instead of being specified exactly. The multiplicity of prior leads to a collection or a range of Bayes actions. It is interesting not only to investigate the range of estimators but also to recommend the optimal procedures. In this article, we deal with posterior regret Γ-minimax (PRGM) estimation and prediction of an unknown parameter θ and a value of a random variable Y under entropy loss function. Applications for k-records such as estimation and prediction problems are discussed.
