Adaptive Bayesian Analysis for Binomial Proportions
We consider the problem of statistical inference of binomial proportions for non-matched, correlated samples, under the Bayesian framework. Such inference can arise when the same group is observed a different number of times on two or more inference occasions, with the aim of testing the proportion of some trait. These scenarios can occur when we are interested to infer the proportion of extrem...
متن کاملRecommended confidence intervals for two independent binomial proportions.
The relationship between two independent binomial proportions is commonly estimated and presented using the difference between proportions, the number needed to treat, the ratio of proportions or the odds ratio. Several different confidence intervals are available, but they can produce markedly different results. Some of the traditional approaches, such as the Wald interval for the difference b...
متن کاملScore intervals for the difference of two binomial proportions
In this communication, we reconsider the approach to the constrained maximum likelihood estimation of asymptotic score intervals for the difference of two independent binomial proportions proposed by Miettinen and Nurminen (M&N) in 1985. Then we review the subsequent biometric literature regarding the accuracy of the coverage probabilities of the different methods, and respond to the unfavorabl...
متن کاملApproximate simultaneous confidence intervals for multiple contrasts of binomial proportions.
Simultaneous confidence intervals for contrasts of means in a one-way layout with several independent samples are well established for Gaussian distributed data. Procedures addressing different hypotheses are available, such as all pairwise comparisons or comparisons to control, comparison with average, or different tests for order-restricted alternatives. However, if the distribution of the re...
متن کاملBayesian interpretation and credible intervals for regularised linear wavelet estimators
We first consider a Bayesian formalism in the wavelet domain that gives rise to the regularised linear wavelet estimator obtained in the standard nonparametric regression setting when the unknown response function belongs to a Sobolev space with non-integer regularity s > 1/2. We then use the posterior distribution of the wavelets coefficients to construct pointwise Bayesian credible intervals ...
