We consider the problem of estimation ofμ1when it is suspected thatμ1≈μ2based on independent samples fromNp(μ1,σ2V1) andNp(μ2,σ2V2). We assumeV1,V2known butσ2unknown. First, the EB estimator is derived and its Bayesian and frequentist properties are studied. Second, a modified EB estimator is proposed and shown to dominate a preliminary test estimator. Finally, a hierarchical Bayes approach is proposed as an alternative to EB estimators.
