Abstract :
Some biased estimators have been suggested as a means of improving the accuracy of parameter estimates in a regression model when multicollinearity exists. The rationale for using biased estimators instead of unbiased estimators when multicollinearity exists is given in this paper. A summary for a list of biased estimators is also given in this paper.
