The power of confidence intervals [PDF]
Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2002 We connect the power of Confidence Intervals in different Frequentist methods to their reliability. We show that in the case of a bounded parameter a biased method which near the boundary has large power in testing the parameter against larger alternatives and small power in testing the parameter against smaller alternatives is desirable.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...

Empirical Likelihood Inference for the Mean Past Lifetime Function
, 2022 In several fields, such as survival analysis, reliability theory, and forensic science, the mean past lifetime (MPL), also known as the expected inactivity time function, plays a vital role.

The fallacy of placing confidence in confidence intervals [PDF]
Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2015 Interval estimates - estimates of parameters that include an allowance for sampling uncertainty - have long been touted as a key component of statistical analyses. There are several kinds of interval estimates, but the most popular are confidence intervals (CIs): intervals that contain the true parameter value in some known proportion of repeated ...

Central Nervous System Tumors Among Infants in Canada: A Report From CYP‐C
Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) tumors in infants are rare, pose unique clinical challenges, and lack large‐scale evidence‐based data to guide management. This study seeks to describe CNS tumors in Canadian infants and to compare their outcomes with those of older children.

Empirical Likelihood Confidence Intervals for ROC Curves with Missing Data [PDF]
, 2011 The receiver operating characteristic, or the ROC curve, is widely utilized to evaluate the diagnostic performance of a test, in other words, the accuracy of a test to discriminate normal cases from diseased cases.

Confidence Interval for Quantile Ratio of the Dagum Distribution
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2021 Inequality measures based on ratios of quantiles are frequently applied in economic research, especially to the analysis of income distributions. In the paper, we construct a confidence interval for such measures under the Dagum distribution which has ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.
