Admissible predictive density estimation [PDF]
, 2008 Let $X|\mu\sim N_p(\mu,v_xI)$ and $Y|\mu\sim N_p(\mu,v_yI)$ be independent $p$-dimensional multivariate normal vectors with common unknown mean $\mu$. Based on observing $X=x$, we consider the problem of estimating the true predictive density $p(y|\mu ...

Bayesian Inference For Exponential Distribution Based On Upper Record Range [PDF]
, 2013 This paper deals with Bayesian estimations of scale parameter of the exponential distribution based on upper record range (Rn). This has been done in two steps; point and interval.

Evaluation of Formal posterior distributions via Markov chain arguments [PDF]
, 2007 We consider evaluation of proper posterior distributions obtained from improper prior distributions. Our context is estimating a bounded function $\phi$ of a parameter when the loss is quadratic.

Admissibility of the usual confidence interval in linear regression
, 2010 Consider a linear regression model with independent and identically normally distributed random errors. Suppose that the parameter of interest is a specified linear combination of the regression parameters. We prove that the usual confidence interval for

Decision theory results for one-sided multiple comparison procedures
, 2005 A resurgence of interest in multiple hypothesis testing has occurred in the last decade. Motivated by studies in genomics, microarrays, DNA sequencing, drug screening, clinical trials, bioassays, education and psychology, statisticians have been devoting

When is Eaton's Markov chain irreducible?
, 2007 Consider a parametric statistical model $P(\mathrm{d}x|\theta)$ and an improper prior distribution $\nu(\mathrm{d}\theta)$ that together yield a (proper) formal posterior distribution $Q(\mathrm{d}\theta|x)$.

Evidence: Admission of Mathematical Probability Statistics Held Erroneous for Want of Demonstration of Validity [PDF]
, 1967 In State v. Sneed the New Mexico Supreme Court limited its disapproval of evidence of probability statistics to the particular facts presented but failed to articulate specific safeguards for subsequent use of such evidence. This note explores the nature

, 2005 The problem of multiple endpoint testing for k endpoints is treated as a 2^k finite action problem. The loss function chosen is a vector loss function consisting of two components. The two components lead to a vector risk.

Scientific Ignorance and Reliable Patterns of Evidence in Toxic Tort Causation: Is There a Need for Liability Reform? [PDF]
, 2001 As a first step to preserving the central aims of tort law, courts will need to recognize the wide variety of respectable, reliable patterns of evidence on which scientists themselves rely for drawing inferences about the toxicity of substances.
