X be random variable with distribution negative binomial NB(p,r) . r is known, 0<p<1 unknown. Find the UMVUE of log (p)
X be random variable with distribution negative binomial NB(p,r) . r is known, 0<p<1 unknown. The pmf is
We know that X is sufficient and complete for p. Let us assume the UMVUE of log(p) is g(X) where g fucntion statisfing E(g(X))= log(p). Then
Hence g(r) =0 and
This is the UMVUE of log(p).
