Abstract

Suppose we observe x1, x2, ... ε λ drawn i.i.d. according to some unknown distribution p selected from a family of distributions P. Let f:P → Λ be a parameterization of P ε P. In this paper, we study necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of strongly consistent estimators of f(P). A number of previous results along these lines are special cases of our main result.
