Abstract
A matrix inequality is established that provides an upper bound for a quadratic form that involves the difference between two linear unbiase d estimators of the same linear parametric function in a general linea r model, Various special cases of the inequality are discussed. Certai n inequalities that arise in the problem of outlier detection and pred iction of observations come out as special cases, In addition, some ex tensions of Samuelson's inequality are also obtained.
