J. S. MARITZ

University of Melbourne

A number of established methods of empirical Bayes estimation for the Poisson distribution are surveyed, and their performances are compared. A new method of smooth empirical Bayes estimation is presented, and its performance is also studied. The question of assessing the effectivenness of the empirical Bayes approach in practice is examined.
