Small Sample Performance of Some Estimators of the Truncated Binomial Distribution

Estimation of the parameter of a binomial distribution with the zero class truncated is a classical problem in human genetics. Mathematically the problem is the estimation of p from n, independent observations with distribution, ( r s )p r q s-r /(1 - q s ) where r = 1, 2, ··· s, q = 1 - p and s ≥ 2...
