Application of the entropic coefficient for interval number optimization during interval assessment
Tekhnologiya i Konstruirovanie v Elektronnoi Apparature, 2017 In solving many statistical problems, the most precise choice of the distribution law of a random variable is required, the sample of which the authors observe. This choice requires the construction of an interval series. Therefore, the problem arises of
