Streszczenie
The statistical estimation problem of the normal distribution function and of the density at a point is considered. The traditional unbiased estimators are shown to have Bayes nature and admissibility of related generalized Bayes procedures is proved. Also inadmissibility of the unbiased density estimator is demonstrated.
