High-Accuracy Confidence Regions for Distribution Parameters

چکیده
With the help of today’s computers, it is always relatively easy to find maximum-likelihood estimators one or more parameters any specific statistical distribution, and use these construct corresponding approximate confidence interval/region, facilitated by well-known asymptotic properties likelihood function. The purpose this article make approximation substantially accurate extending Taylor expansion probability density function include quadratic cubic terms in several centralized sample means, thus finding -proportional correction original algorithm. We then demonstrate new procedure’s usage, both for constructing regions testing hypotheses, emphasizing that incorporating carries minimal computational programming cost. In our final chapter, we present two examples indicate how significantly improves accuracy.

Confidence Regions for High Quantiles of a Heavy Tailed Distribution
Estimating high quantiles plays an important role in the context of risk management. This involves extrapolation of an unknown distribution function. In this paper we propose three methods, namely, the normal approximation method, the likelihood ratio method and the data tilting method, to construct confidence regions for high quantiles of a heavy tailed distribution. A simulation study prefers...
متن کاملCONFIDENCE REGIONS FOR TIlE PARAMETERS OF A
Three methods in common use for finding confidence regions for the parameters of a nonlinear regression model are studied. These are the lack of fit method, the linearization method, and the maximum likelihood method. The objective is to determine which of the three methods is the preferred choice in applications. The conclusion is that the linearization method has the best structural character...

متن کاملJoint Confidence Regions
Confidence intervals are one of the most important topics in mathematical statistics which are related to statistical hypothesis tests. In a confidence interval, the aim is that to find a random interval that coverage the unknown parameter with high probability. Confidence intervals and its different forms have been extensively discussed in standard statistical books. Since the most of stati...
متن کاملAssessing accuracy in linkage analysis by means of confidence regions.
When statistical linkage to a certain chromosomal region has been found, it is of interest to develop methods quantifying the accuracy with which the disease locus can be mapped. In this paper, we investigate the performance of three different types of confidence regions, with asymptotically correct coverage probability as the number of pedigrees grows. Our setup is that of a saturated map of m...
