Question

Let $(X_1, ..., X_n)$ be a random sample from the Poisson distribution truncated at 0, i.e., $P(X_i = x) = (e^ heta - 1)^{-1} heta^x / x!$, $x = 1, 2, ..., heta > 0$. Find the UMVUE of $ heta$ when $n = 1, 2.$

          Let $(X_1, ..., X_n)$ be a random sample from the Poisson distribution truncated at 0, i.e., $P(X_i = x) = (e^	heta - 1)^{-1} 	heta^x / x!$, $x = 1, 2, ..., 	heta > 0$. Find the UMVUE of $	heta$ when $n = 1, 2.$

Let (X1, ..., Xn) be a random sample from the Poisson distribution truncated at 0, i.e., P(Xi = x) = (e^theta - 1)^-1 theta^x / x!, x = 1, 2, ..., theta > 0. Find the UMVUE of theta when n = 1, 2.
