QUANTILE ESTIMATION AND PROBABILITY COVERAGES

Australian Journal of Statistics, 1980
SummaryWhen estimating population quantiles via a random sample from an unknown continuous distribution function it is well known that a pair of order statistics may be used to set a confidence interval for any single desired, population quantile. In this paper the technique is generalized so that more than one pair of order statistics may be used to ...

Probability models of microcell coverage

Wireless Networks, 1996
Once a subscriber unit served by a microcell initiates a call, it must remain in the coverage area of the microcell long enough to complete call set up and hand-off functions. This restricts the minimum size attainable by a microcell. This paper derives the relationship between the microcell size, the call processing time, and the probability that a ...

Choosing a Coverage Probability for Prediction Intervals

The American Statistician, 2008
Coverage probabilities for prediction intervals are germane to filtering, forecasting, previsions, regression, and time series analysis. It is a common practice to choose the coverage probabilities for such intervals by convention or by astute judgment. We argue here that coverage probabilities can be chosen by decision theoretic considerations. But to

The asymptotic values of certain coverage probabilities

Biometrika, 1969
SUMMARY Consider n arbitrary subsets of a set X. Suppose x e X lies in H(x) of these subsets and define H = min H(x) and H = max H(x). That is, the least and most covered regions of X are x E X _ x E respectively H- and H-covered, with 0 n-rm) are determined for m = 0, 1,. 1.

Bounds for coverage probabilities with applications to sequential coverage problems

Journal of Applied Probability, 1974
This paper discusses general bounds for coverage probabilities and moments of stopping rules for sequential coverage problems in geometrical probability. An approach to the study of the asymptotic behaviour of these moments is also presented.

Theory of coverage dependence of sticking probability

Surface Science, 1984
Abstract The coverage dependence of sticking probability is calculated on an extended Kisliuk model of kinetics on the precursor state. A rate equation for average occupation of the precursor state is solved under a stationary condition. The effects of the extention of the Kisliuk kinetics and of the long and short range order on a lattice gas model ...

Asymptotic Expansion of the Coverage Probability of James–Stein Estimators

Theory of Probability & Its Applications, 2007
Summary: This paper provides a new approach to the asymptotic expansion construction of the coverage probability of the confidence sets recentered by \textit{W. James} and \textit{C. Stein} [Estimation with quadratic loss. Proc. Fourth Berkeley Symp. Math. Stat. Probab., Vol. 1, 361--379 (1961)] and its positive-part Stein estimators [\textit{C. Stein},

Coverage Hole Detection Algorithm Based on Cooperative Probability Coverage in Wireless Sensor Networks

2018 5th IEEE International Conference on Cloud Computing and Intelligence Systems (CCIS), 2018
The paper presents a new coverage hole detection algorithm based on cooperative probabilistic coverage model. By using this model, the cooperative coverage problem in monitoring areas can be transformed into distance-relationship question. The high-density and randomly scattered surveillance sensor networks can be divided into several Voronoi areas in ...
