If θ ∈ Θ is an unknown real parameter of a given distribution, we are interested in constructing an exactly median-unbiased estimator θ̂ of θ, i.e. an estimator θ̂ such that a median Med(θ̂ ) of the estimator equals θ, uniformly over θ ∈ Θ. We shall consider the problem in the case of a fixed sample size n (nonasymptotic approach).
