Testing for Treatment Effect in the Presence of Regression toward the Mean

Biometrics, 1997
We are often faced with the statistical problem of evaluating the effect of a treatment in the extreme of a population. This requires taking measurements on truncated random variables and, hence, it becomes necessary to take proper account of the effect of regression toward the mean.

Meaning Makers

International Journal of Ambient Computing and Intelligence, 2009
Presence is an important part of our day-to-day lives. Often we will have a sense of who is around us and what they are doing by the sounds of doors closing, cupboards banging, footsteps on floors, voices vaguely heard through walls, etc. In digital spaces, such as GUI desktops, presence enhances our sense of connection with geographical separate ...

Estimation of a mean in the presence of an extreme observation

Statistics & Probability Letters, 1982
Abstract The performance of Anscombe, semi-Winsorization and Winsorization ( A , S and W ) rules for dealing with extreme observations are investigated for observations from N( μ , σ 2 ) and the simple case where it is assumed that at most one observation in the sample may be biased, arising from N( μ + aσ , σ 2 ) and the primary objective ...

On Estimation Of Mean Life In The Presence Of An Outlier

IEEE Transactions on Reliability, 1983
Life estimation based on an ordered sample from the exponential distribution is considered in the following situations: 1. The first failure occurs at a very early stage of the experiment and is suspected to be an ``early failure''. 2. The last failure is suspected to come from a population with a higher mean than the rest of the sample.
