(IS09) Consistency and Sufficiency

This video revisits these foundational ideas, starting with a review of unbiasedness and efficiency, alongside a discussion on Fisher information and the Cramer-Rao lower bound—a pivotal theorem in estimation theory that sets the minimal variance bound for unbiased estimators. We then shift our focus to the main theme of the video—consistency of estimators, discussing both weak and strong forms. Through clear examples and theoretical proofs, such as using Chebyshev's inequality or the continuous mapping theorem, we illuminate the conditions under which estimators converge to the true parameter values as sample sizes increase. The session progresses to sufficiency of estimators, exploring the Fisher-Neyman factorization theorem and its role in identifying sufficient statistics for parameter estimation.
