Abstract
Abstract This article reviews the state of multiparameter shrinkage estimators with emphasis on the empirical Bayes viewpoint, particularly in the case of parametric prior distributions. Some successful applications of major importance are considered. Recent results concerning estimates of error and confidence intervals are described and illustrated with data.
