Under the normal-inverse Wishart prior for （BΣ）, the Bayes estimators are derived. The superiority of the Bayes estimators of B and Σ over the least squares estimators under the criteria of Bayes mean squared error （BMSE） and Bayes mean squared error matrix （BMSEM） is shown. In addition, the Pitman Closeness （PC） criterion is also included to investigate the superiority of the Bayes estimator of B.展开更多
