Invariant Empirical Bayes Confidence Interval for Mean Vector of Normal Distribution and its Generalization for Exponential Family
Based on a given Bayesian model of multivariate normal with known variance matrix we will find an empirical Bayes confidence interval for the mean vector components which have normal distribution. We will find this empirical Bayes confidence interval as a conditional form on ancillary statistic. In both cases (i.e. conditional and unconditional empirical Bayes confidence interval), the empiri...
متن کاملA Procedure for Building Confidence Interval on the Mean of Simulation Output Data
One of the existing methods to build a confidence interval (c.i.) for the mean response in a single steady state simulation system is the batch means method. This method, compared to the other existing methods (autoregressive representation, regenerative cycles, spectrum analysis, standardized time series), is quite easy to understand and to implement and performs relatively well. However, the ...
متن کاملOptimal confidence interval for the largest normal mean under heteroscedasticity
A two-stage sampling procedure for obtaining an optimal confidence interval for the largest or smallest mean of k independent normal populations is proposed, where the population variances are unknown and possibly unequal. The optimal confidence interval is obtained by maximizing the coverage probability with a fixed width at a least favorable configuration of means. Then, the sample sizes can ...
متن کاملExact hypothesis testing and confidence interval for mean of the exponential distribution under Type-I progressive hybrid censoring
Censored samples are discussed in experiments of life-testing; i.e. whenever the experimenter does not observe the failure times of all units placed on a life test. In recent years, inference based on censored sampling is considered, so that about the parameters of various distributions such as normal, exponential, gamma, Rayleigh, Weibull, log normal, inverse Gaussian, ...
متن کاملApproximate Confidence Interval for the Reciprocal of a Normal Mean with a Known Coefficient of Variation
An approximate confidence interval for the reciprocal of a normal population mean with a known coefficient of variation is proposed. This has applications in the area of nuclear physics, agriculture and economic when the researcher knows the coefficient of variation. The proposed confidence interval is based on the approximate expectation and variance of the estimator by Taylor series expansion...
