| Abstract | Analytical bias reduction methods are developed for univariate rounded data for the first time. Extensions are given to rounding of multivariate data, and to smooth functionals of several distributions. As a by-product, we give for the first time the relation between rounded and unrounded multivariate cumulants. Estimators obtained by analytical bias reduction are compared with bootstrap and jackknife estimators by simulation. © 2015 The Authors. Statistica Neerlandica. |
