In principle
Statistics is applicable in medicine, biology, physics, social science, economics, .... engineering ... law, sport, consumer studies ... . The page on Estimator about which there is discussion above is an example of the topic seen from Statistics. Obviously people from engineering will hardly recognise that it's all, in principle, about the same thing, and vice versa.
22:
425:
I think a problem with this page is that it is very much focussed on
Estimation Theory as it is understood in engineering esp. Signal Processing. There is also a mathematical science called Statistics which treates Estimation (and hence Estimators), Testing (and hence Statistical Tests), and so on.
429:
The subject of
Estimation Theory is: construction, design, evaluation of Estimators! So one hardly needs two different pages with those two titles. I suppose that Interval Estimation is also part of estimation theory, while presently it is only treated under Estimators and not under Estimation !!!
447:“See also“ “Grey box completion and validation“ has been removed anonymously without explanation from this and several other topics. Following advice from Knowledge if there are no objections (please provide your name and reasons), I plan to reinstate the reference in a weeks time.
450:
The removed reference provides additional information on methods of estimating model details. In particular most models are incomplete (i.e. a grey box) and thus need completion and validation. This reference seems to be within the appropriate content of the “See also” section see
712:
This article really needs to be expanded. For example: "It is then necessary to define the
Bayesian probability π(θ)." <-- even with the link, it is totally not clear why this is required and how this is done.
355:
Have mercy! I am without knowledge and the only clue I had was the term "estimation theory." Please do not submerge the estimation theory without a reference for those of us with little knowledge. Thanks!
124:
433:
I think there should be a general page on
Estimation Theory with subtopics on Estimation theory in engineering etc.. as far as these subfields cannot identifiy themselves with the broad topic

Estimation Theory and
Statistical Point Estimation are two totally different approaches to the same thing. The nomeclature and methods are almost orthogonal. --
