Inferences on Correlation Coefficients of Bivariate Log-normal Distributions
This article considers inference on correlation coefficients of bivariate log-normal distributions. We developed generalized confidence intervals and hypothesis tests for the correlation coefficient, and extended the results for comparing two independent correlations. Simulation studies show that the suggested methods work well even for small samples. The methods are illustrated using two pract...
متن کاملDisplaying Bivariate Data
Numerical techniques are too often designed to yield specific answers to rigidly defined questions. Graphical techniques are less confining. They aid in understanding the numerous relationships reflected in the data. They help reveal the existence of peculiar looking observations or subsets of the data. It is difficult to obtain similar information from numerical procedures. In this article, by...
متن کاملEstimating the Correlation in Bivariate Normal Data with Known Variances and Small Sample Sizes().
We consider the problem of estimating the correlation in bivariate normal data when the means and variances are assumed known, with emphasis on the small sample case. We consider eight different estimators, several of them considered here for the first time in the literature. In a simulation study, we found that Bayesian estimators using the uniform and arc-sine priors outperformed several empi...
متن کاملAn Inequality for the Correlation of Two Functions Operating on Symmetric Bivariate Normal Variables
An inequality is derived for the correlation of two univariate functions operating on symmetric bivariate normal random variables. The inequality is a simple consequence of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality.
متن کاملTest of the Correlation Coefficient in Bivariate Normal Populations Using Ranked Set Sampling
Ranked Set Sampling (RSS) is a statistical method for data collection that leads to more efficient estimators than competitors based on Simple Random Sampling (SRS). We consider testing the correlation coefficient of bivariate normal distribution based on Bivariate RSS (BVRSS). Under one-sided and two-sided alternatives, we show that the new tests based on BVRSS are more powerful than the usua...
