Why can we get better asymptotic global estimators even for IID random variables?

Let $X_1,...,X_N$ be IID random variables sampled from a parametrised distribution $p_\theta$, and suppose my goal is to retrieve $\theta$ from these samples. We know that the MLE provides an ...

Fisher information $J_y(\theta)$ for transformation $y=F(x)$

Consider a multivariate random variable $x$ with density function $P_x(\theta)$ for a scalar parameter $\theta$. Assume the Fisher information $J_x(\theta)$ is known. Now, for a transformation (...
