description Linear regression models are foundation of current statistical theory and have been a prominent object of study in statistical data analysis and inference. A special class of linear regression models is called the seemingly unrelated regression models (SURMs) which allow correlated observations between different regression equations. In this article, we present a general approach to SURMs under some general assumptions, including establishing closed-form expressions of the best linear unbiased predictors (BLUPs) and the best linear unbiased estimators (BLUEs) of all unknown parameters in the models, establishing necessary and sufficient conditions for a family of equalities of the predictors and estimators under the single models and the combined model to hold. Some fundamental and valuable properties of the BLUPs and BLUEs under the SURM are also presented.
