A frequentist framework of inductive reasoning

open access: yes, 2009
Reacting against the limitation of statistics to decision procedures, R. A. Fisher proposed for inductive reasoning the use of the fiducial distribution, a parameter-space distribution of epistemological probability transferred directly from limiting ...

Method of the interval evaluation of technical systems reliability for the random variable with the two-parameter Weibull distribution

open access: yesVojnotehnički Glasnik, 1998
The interval reliability evaluation method by applying the beta distribution quantile has been proposed in this paper. The comparison between this method and a similar one given in the international standard IEC 61649 has pointed out the possibility of ...

Confidence regions for high quantiles of a heavy tailed distribution

open access: yes, 2006
Estimating high quantiles plays an important role in the context of risk management. This involves extrapolation of an unknown distribution function. In this paper we propose three methods, namely, the normal approximation method, the likelihood ratio ...

Coherent frequentism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
By representing the range of fair betting odds according to a pair of confidence set estimators, dual probability measures on parameter space called frequentist posteriors secure the coherence of subjective inference without any prior distribution.

Confidence interval estimation of gamma distribution lifetime data using score and bootstrap methods

open access: yesDesimal, 2021
Confidence interval estimation of parameters determines the value interval, which is calculated based on statistical measurements and has specific estimates probability that contains the actual parameters.

The Power of Confidence Intervals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We consider the power to reject false values of the parameter in Frequentist methods for the calculation of confidence intervals. We connect the power with the physical significance (reliability) of confidence intervals for a parameter bounded to be non ...

ESTIMATING COMMON PARAMETERS OF DIFFERENT CONTINUOUS DISTRIBUTIONS [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings on Engineering Sciences
Estimating a common parameter is the most essential and quite fascinating task across various probability distributions. This article addresses the challenge of estimating this parameter through the application of Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE ...

A new distribution-free approach to constructing the confidence region for multiple parameters. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Construction of confidence intervals or regions is an important part of statistical inference. The usual approach to constructing a confidence interval for a single parameter or confidence region for two or more parameters requires that the distribution ...

Confidence Intervals for the Coefficient of Quartile Variation of a Zero-inflated Lognormal Distribution

open access: yesEmerging Science Journal, 2021
There are many types of skewed distribution, one of which is the lognormal distribution that is positively skewed and may contain true zero values. The coefficient of quartile variation is a statistical tool used to measure the dispersion of skewed and ...

Perturbed Datasets Methods for Hypothesis Testing and Structure of Corresponding Confidence Sets

open access: yes, 2014
Hypothesis testing methods that do not rely on exact distribution assumptions have been emerging lately. The method of sign-perturbed sums (SPS) is capable of characterizing confidence regions with exact confidence levels for linear regression and linear
