A New Confidence Interval Method for the Estimation of Quantiles
Confidence intervals for the median of estimators or other quantiles were proposed as a substitute for usual confidence intervals in terminating and steady-state simulation. They are easy to obtain, the variance of the estimator is not used, they are well suited for correlated simulation output data, apply to functions of estimators, and in simulation they seem to be particularly accurate. For ...
متن کاملConstructing a Confidence Interval for Quantiles of Normal Distribution, one and Two Population
In this paper, in order to establish a confidence interval (general and shortest) for quantiles of normal distribution in the case of one population, we present a pivotal quantity that has non-central t distribution. In the case of two independent normal populations, we construct a confidence interval for the difference quantiles based on the generalized pivotal quantity and introduce ...
متن کاملImproved confidence intervals for quantiles
We derive the Edgeworth expansion for the studentized version of the kernel quantile estimator. Inverting the expansion allows us to get very accurate confidence intervals for the pth quantile under general conditions. The results are applicable in practice to improve inference for quantiles when sample sizes are moderate.
متن کاملNonparametric confidence interval estimators for heritability and expected selection response.
Statistical methods have not been described for comparing estimates of family-mean heritability (H) or expected selection response (R), nor have consistently valid methods been described for estimating R intervals. Nonparametric methods, e.g., delete-one jackknifing, may be used to estimate variances, intervals, and hypothesis test statistics in estimation problems where parametric methods are ...
متن کاملUsing small bias nonparametric density estimators for confidence interval estimation
Confidence intervals for densities built on the basis of standard nonparametric theory are doomed to have poor coverage rates due to bias. Studies on coverage improvement exist, but reasonably behaved interval estimators are needed. We explore the use of small bias kernel-based methods to construct confidence intervals, in particular using a geometric density estimator that seems better suited ...
