Optimal sequential procedures with Bayes decision rules
In this article, a general problem of sequential statistical inference for general discrete-time stochastic processes is considered. The problem is to minimize an average sample number given that Bayesian risk due to incorrect decision does not exceed some given bound. We characterize the form of optimal sequential stopping rules in this problem. In particular, we have a characterization of the...
متن کاملChoice by sequential procedures
We propose a rule of decision-making, the sequential procedure guided by routes, and show that three influential boundedly rational choice models can be equivalently understood as special cases of this rule. In addition, the sequential procedure guided by routes is instrumental in showing that the three models are intimately related. We show that choice with a status-quo bias is a refinement of...
متن کامل- e SEQUENTIAL AND TIME - SEQUENTIAL PROCEDURES FOR GENERALIZED MODELS
In statistical inference it is often desired to test a specified function of unknown parameters from an underlying distribution. Sequential procedures utilize information from the already collected observations and allow for a possible early termination of experimentation with a concurrent savings in time and cost. They also enable the investigator to prescribe bounds for both the Type I and Ty...
متن کاملConvergence in a sequential two stages decision making process
We analyze a sequential decision making process, in which at each stepthe decision is made in two stages. In the rst stage a partially optimalaction is chosen, which allows the decision maker to learn how to improveit under the new environment. We show how inertia (cost of changing)may lead the process to converge to a routine where no further changesare made. We illustrate our scheme with some...
متن کاملSequential 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...
