Regular estimator
open-in-new
<p>Regular estimators are a class of <a href="/facts/Estimator/CbkjcKvN">statistical estimators</a> that satisfy certain regularity conditions which make them amenable to <a href="/facts/Asymptotic/nvLPuxKa">asymptotic</a> analysis. The convergence of a regular estimator's distribution is, in a sense, locally uniform. This is often considered desirable and leads to the convenient property that a small change in the parameter does not dramatically change the distribution of the estimator. </p>
