Fisher Information

The Fisher Information on a parameter is easily derived using mathStatica's FisherInformation function. To illustrate, let [Graphics:Images/index_gr_1.gif] with pdf [Graphics:Images/index_gr_2.gif]:

[Graphics:Images/index_gr_3.gif]

Then, Fisher’s Information on [Graphics:Images/index_gr_4.gif] is the [Graphics:Images/index_gr_5.gif] matrix:

[Graphics:Images/index_gr_6.gif]
[Graphics:Images/index_gr_7.gif]
