A Review of Numerical Methods for Computing Point and Interval Estimates by S-PLUS Package
For computing different point estimates such as method of moment and maximum like-lihood estimates and different interval estimates (classical confidence interval, unbi-ased confidence interval, HPD interval), we may deal with the equations which need be solved numerically. In this paper, some numerical methods for solving these type of equations are reviewed in S-PLUS package. Various examples...
متن کاملEffective Contingency Ranking Based on Composite Indices
Contingency ranking in power system transient stability is a complicated and time consuming task. To prevail over this difficulty, various indices are used. These indices are based on the concept of coherency and three dot products of the system variables. It is well known that some indices work better than others for a particular power system. This paper introduces an innovative composite seve...
متن کاملProject Makespan Estimation: Computational Load of Interval and Point Estimates
The estimation of project completion time is to be repeated several times in the project planning phase to reach the optimal tradeoff between time, cost, and quality. Estimation procedures provide either an interval or a point estimate. The computational load of several estimation procedures is reviewed. A multiple polynomial regression model is provided for major interval estimation procedures...
متن کاملImproving Point and Interval Estimates of Monotone Functions by Rearrangement
Suppose that a target function f0 : R d → R is monotonic, namely, weakly increasing, and an original estimate f̂ of this target function is available, which is not weakly increasing. Many common estimation methods used in statistics produce such estimates f̂ . We show that these estimates can always be improved with no harm using rearrangement techniques: The rearrangement methods, univariate and...
متن کاملRanking Indices for Fuzzy Numbers
Fuzzy set theory has been studied extensively over the past 30 years. Most of the early interest in fuzzy set theory pertained to representing uncertainty in human cognitive processes (see for example Zadeh (1965)). Fuzzy set theory is now applied to problems in engineering, business, medical and related health sciences, and the natural sciences. In an effort to gain a better understanding of t...
