Fisher (1934), starting from his fundamental paper (1922), discussed estimators of the location parameter of a double exponential (two-sided exponential) distribution as a typical example of non-regular estimation. He showed that the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), which is equal to the sample median in this case, has asymptotic loss of information of order \(\sqrt{n}\), as compared to constant order in regular cases. Let I and IT be the amounts of Fisher information in a single observation and that in a statistic T, respectively. Then the value of nI•IT as n → ∞, i.e. limn→∞ (nI — IT) is called the loss of information associated with T and its asymptotic value as n → ∞ is called the asymptotic loss of information (see, e.g. Rao (1961)).
