Sequential Point Estimation Procedures for the Generalized Life Distributions
The problem of minimum risk point estimation under squared-error loss function (SELF) for the parameter associated with the generalized life distributions, is considered. The failure of fixed sample size procedure is established. Sequential procedure using uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (UMVUE) at both the stopping and estimation stages is developed and the second-order approxima...
متن کاملThe Distributions of Stopping Times For Ordinary And Compound Poisson Processes With Non-Linear Boundaries: Applications to Sequential Estimation
Distributions of the first-exit times from a region with non-linear upper boundary are discussed for ordinary and compound Poisson processes. Explicit formulae are developed for the case of ordinary Poisson processes. Recursive formulae are given for the compound Poisson case, where the jumps are positive, having continuous distributions with finite means. Applications to sequential point estim...
متن کاملBounded Stopping Times for a Class of Sequential Bayes Tests
Consider the problem of sequentially testing a null hypothesis vs an alternative hypothesis when the risk function is a linear combination of probability of error in the terminal decision and expected sample size (i.e., constant cost per observation.) Assume that the parameter space is the union of null and alternative, the parameter space is convex, the intersection of null and alternative is ...
متن کاملA definition and some characteristic properties of pseudo-stopping times
Recently, Williams [Bull. London Math. Soc. 34 (2002) 610–612] gave an explicit example of a random time � associated with Brownian motion such that � is not a stopping time but E(M�)=E(M0) for every bounded martingale M. The aim of this paper is to characterize such random times, which we call pseudo-stopping times, and to construct further examples, using techniques of progressive enlargement...
متن کاملDelay times of sequential procedures for linear models
Consider a linear model setting in which the explanatory variables are specified by time series. To sequentially test for the stability of the regression parameters in time, we introduce a detector which is based on the first excess time of a CUSUM-type statistic over a suitably defined threshold function. The main aim of this paper is to derive the limit distribution of the detector. By provid...
