Statistics & Probability Letters, 1991, vol. 11, issue 2, 155-160

Abstract: Standard estimation procedures in a multinomial setting are the methods of maximum likelihood, minimum chi-square, Neyman modified minimum chi-square, minimum discriminate information, and the Freeman-Tukey criteria: In this paper it is shown that if the parameter region of interest is restricted by an isotonic cone, then all these procedures can be related and the corresponding estimates expressed in terms of equal weights, least squares projections.
