A second-order efficient empirical Bayes confidence interval [PDF]
, 2014 We introduce a new adjusted residual maximum likelihood method (REML) in the context of producing an empirical Bayes (EB) confidence interval for a normal mean, a problem of great interest in different small area applications.

Modified Clopper-Pearson Confidence Interval for Binomial Proportion [PDF]
Journal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2014 We introduce expected coverage probability as a measure for constructing confidence intervals for the binomial proportion, p. We propose a model based confidence interval for p using the expected coverage probabilities of the Clopper-Pearson interval ...
