Stereo Depth Estimation: A Confidence Interval Approach
We describe an estimation technique which, given a measurement of the depth of a target from a wide-fieldof-view (WFOV) stereo camera pair, produces a minimax risk fixed-size confidence interval estimate for the target depth. This work constitutes the first application to the computer vision domain of optimal fixed-size confidenceinterval decision theory. The approach is evaluated in terms of t...
متن کاملInterval estimation by simulation as an alternative to and extension of confidence intervals.
There are numerous techniques for constructing confidence intervals, most of which are unavailable in standard software. Modern computing power allows one to replace these techniques with relatively simple, general simulation methods. These methods extend easily to incorporate sources of uncertainty beyond random error. The simulation concepts are explained in an example of estimating a populat...
متن کاملMethods for confidence interval estimation of a ratio parameter with application to location quotients
BACKGROUND The location quotient (LQ) ratio, a measure designed to quantify and benchmark the degree of relative concentration of an activity in the analysis of area localization, has received considerable attention in the geographic and economics literature. This index can also naturally be applied in the context of population health to quantify and compare health outcomes across spatial domai...
متن کاملInterval Estimation for the Sortino Ratio and the Omega Ratio
In this paper asymptotic confidence intervals for the Sortino and Omega Ratio are proposed and analyzed. First the confidence intervals are derived under the strong assumption of temporal independence and identical distribution of the returns. Later they are obtained assuming that the process followed by returns is strictly stationary and α-mixing of a certain size. In order to evaluate the min...
متن کاملA confidence interval approach to data analysis
The objective of ecological experiments is often to determine whether observed effects are large enough to be ecologically important. Despite this, effect size measures and associated measures of precision are frequently missing in published ecological research. In many cases, P-values are the only information available with which to assess the ecological importance of observed effects, but the...
