Sequential Estimation Methods from Inclusion Principle

چکیده

In this paper, we propose new sequential estimation methods based on inclusion principle. The main idea is to reformulate the estimation problems as constructing sequential random intervals and use confidence sequences to control the associated coverage probabilities. In contrast to existing asymptotic sequential methods, our estimation procedures rigorously guarantee the pre-specified levels of confidence.

Asymptotically Optimal Sequential Estimation of the Mean Based on Inclusion Principle

A large class of problems in sciences and engineering can be formulated as the general problem of constructing random intervals with pre-specified coverage probabilities for the mean. Wee propose a general approach for statistical inference of mean values based on accumulated observational data. We show that the construction of such random intervals can be accomplished by comparing the endpoint...

Computational Methods for Evaluating Sequential Tests and Post-test Estimation via the Sufficiency Principle

By the sufficiency principle, the probability density of a sequential test statistic under certain conditions can be factored into a known function that does not depend on the stopping rule and a conditional probability that is free of unknown parameters. We develop general theorems and propose a unified approach to analyzing and evaluating various properties of sequential tests and post-test e...

Bayesin estimation and prediction whit multiply type-II censored sample of sequential order statistics from one-and-two-parameter exponential distribution

In this article introduce the sequential order statistics. Therefore based on multiply Type-II censored sample of sequential order statistics, Bayesian estimators are derived for the parameters of one- and two- parameter exponential distributions under the assumption that the prior distribution is given by an inverse gamma distribution and the Bayes estimator with respect to squared error loss ...

Sequential estimation of linear combinations of the location and scale parameters in negative exponential distribution

Sequential estimation is used where the total sample size is not fix and the problem cannot solve with this fixed sample size. Sequentially estimating the mean in an exponential distribution (one and two parameter), is an important problem which has attracted attentions from authors over the years. These largely addressed an exponential distribution involving a single or two parameters. In t...

New Cardinality Estimation Methods for HyperLogLog Sketches

Œis work presents new cardinality estimation methods for data sets recorded by HyperLogLog sketches. A simple derivation of the original estimator was found, that also gives insight how to correct its de€ciencies. Œe result is an improved estimator that is unbiased over the full cardinality range, is easy computable, and does not rely on empirically determined data as previous approaches. Based...
