Asymmetric Loss Functions and Sample Size Determination: A Bayesian Approach
In designing monitoring systems for public health tasks it can be important to give different weights to the cases of under- and overestimation of a binomial parameter. We show how asymmetric loss functions can be used for this aim.

Bayesian sample size determination for cost-effectiveness studies with censored data. [PDF]
Cost-effectiveness models are commonly utilized to determine the combined clinical and economic impact of one treatment compared to another. However, most methods for sample size determination of cost-effectiveness studies assume fully observed costs and

Two Measures for Sample Size Determination
Social surveys often must estimate the sizes or the proportions of many small groups and differences among them. The discussion of the needed precision of the estimators and the corresponding sample size is difficult, in particular when lay persons are ...

Determination of sample size for a multinomial model coupled with the phenology model [PDF]
Predicting the timing of phenological events is important in agriculture, especially high-revenue products. A project sponsored by USDA-ARS had the objective of adapting a previously developed model for estimating proportions of insects in different ...
