Confidence regions for the multinomial parameter with small sample size
Consider the observation of n iid realizations of an experiment with d ≥ 2 possible outcomes, which corresponds to a single observation of a multinomial distribution Md(n,p) where p is an unknown discrete distribution on {1, . . . , d}. In many applications, the construction of a confidence region for p when n is small is crucial. This concrete challenging problem has a long history. It is well...

متن کاملConstructing belief functions from sample data using multinomial confidence regions
The Transferable Belief Model is a subjectivist model of uncertainty in which an agent’s beliefs at a given time are modeled using the formalism of belief functions. Belief functions that enter the model are usually either elicited from experts, or must be constructed from observation data. There are, however, few simple and operational methods available for building belief functions from data....
متن کاملSmall Sample Bootstrap Confidence Intervals for Long-Memory Parameter
The log periodogram regression is widely used in empirical applications because of its simplicity, since only a least squares regression is required to estimate the memory parameter, d, its good asymptotic properties and its robustness to misspecification of the short term behavior of the series. However, the asymptotic distribution is a poor approximation of the (unknown) finite sample distrib...

Consider the observation of n iid realizations of an experiment with d ≥ 2 possible outcomes, which corresponds to a single observation of a multinomial distribution Md(n, p) where p is an unknown discrete distribution on {1, . . . , d}. In many applications in Biology, Medicine, Physics, and Engineering, the construction of a confidence region for p when n is small is crucial. This challenging...
