Confidence intervals with fixed proportional accuracy
(Elsevier, 1986-1987)
The problem of setting a confidence interval with fixed proportional accuracy for the mean of a normal distribution is considered. A sequential procedure is proposed; and asymptotic expansions for its average coverage ...
Singh's theorem in the lattice case
(Elsevier, 1988-12)
The asymptotic behavior of the parametric bootstrap estimator of the sampling distribution of a maximum likelihood estimator is investigated in a simple lattice case, integer valued random variables whose distributions ...
A.P.O. rules are asymptotically non deficient for estimation with squared error loss
(Springer-Verlag, 1981-09)
The problem considered is sequential estimation of the mean θ of a one-parameter exponential family of distributions with squared error loss for estimation error and a cost c >0 for each of an i.i.d. sequence of potential ...
Asymptotic expansions for first passage times
(Elsevier, 1988-06)
Let F be a strongly non-lattice distribution function with a positive mean, a positive variance, and a finite third moment. Let X1, X2,... be i.i.d. with common distribution function F; and let Sn=X1+...+Xn, and ta = ...
The age structure of populations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Elsevier, 1981-04)
A discrete deterministic model is described for the growth of an age-structured population of yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, incorporating recent information on the asymmetry of cell division and control of the cell cycle ...
