On Increasing Confidence in Confidence Intervals
A set of N data elements (xI +•.• + X~)/N and variance of the th The r moment of the data elements elements is used to estimate E(xr ). th r x1' •.•• xN has r moment E(x)= th r 2r 2 r r moment Var(x ) = E(x )-E (x ). in an arbitrary subset of k Over all the choices of the sample, the mean error is zero and the mean squared error N-k r k(N-I) Var(x). A little-known theorem by Marlow shows that t...

notion the theoretical distribution on the random variable ) is not available. All we have ICOTS8 (2010) Invited Paper Engel International Association of Statistical Education (IASE) www.stat.auckland.ac.nz/~iase/ to rely on are the data at hand, i.e. the sample or recapture of size n. These data–if drawn by some random mechanism–may well be taken as a good representation of the total fish popu...
متن کاملConfidence Intervals for Lower Quantiles Based on Two-Sample Scheme
In this paper, a new two-sampling scheme is proposed to construct appropriate confidence intervals for the lower population quantiles. The confidence intervals are determined in the parametric and nonparametric set up and the optimality problem is discussed in each case. Finally, the proposed procedure is illustrated via a real data set.
متن کاملOn confidence intervals from simulation of finite Markov chains
Consider a finite state irreducible Markov reward chain. It is shown that there exist simulation estimates and confidence intervals for the expected first passage times and rewards as well as the expected average reward, with 100% coverage probability. The length of the confidence intervals converges to zero with probability one as the sample size increases; it also satisfies a large deviations...
متن کاملBOOTSTRAP CONFIDENCE INTERVALS 1 BootES : An R Package for Bootstrap Confidence Intervals on Effect Sizes
Bootstrap Effect Sizes (bootES; Gerlanc & Kirby, 2012) is a free, open source software package for R (R Development Core Team, 2012), which is a language and environment for statistical computing. BootES computes both unstandardized and standardized effect sizes (such as Cohen’s d, Hedges’s g, and Pearson’s r), and makes easily available for the first time the computation of their bootstrap CIs...
