If this model holds, then the log transformation produces a normal distribution. We consider the problem of constructing confidence intervals for the mean of the log-normal distribution. Several methods for doin

Fixed-width confidence Intervals for the largest normal mean which are based on Stein''s two-stage sampling procedure have been developed by Chen and Dudewicz ( 1976 ), These intervals are constructed using the generalized sample mean proposed in Stein (1945). It is shown that a larger ...
This lecture shows how to derive confidence intervals for the mean of a normal distribution. We tackle two different cases: when the variance of the distribution is known; when the variance is unknown. In each case we derive the level of confidence and we discuss how it is set. ...
中心极限定理指出,对于大样本量,对于随机变量的任何基础分布,该变量的样本平均值的采样分布将大致正常,平均值等于该随机变量的种群平均值,方差等于变量的种群方差除以样本大小。(基于中心极限定理,当样本大小较大时,我们可以根据正态分布计算总体平均值的置信区间,无论基础总体分布如何。一般来说,30个或更大的样本量可...

This affords an analogous “behavioristic” rationale for confidence intervals as we saw with tests: Different sample realizations x lead to different estimates, but one can ensure that (1−α) 100% of the time the true parameter value μ, whatever it may be, will be included in the ...
This lesson provides instruction for finding confidence intervals with normal distribution. Learn about standard deviation and when it applies, as well as how to calculate confidence intervals with a detailed example. Standard Deviation Reality often differs from theory; in the real world we seldom ...
Based on a random sample of N independent vector observations on X, this paper considers both upper and lower (one-sided) and two-sided 100γ% (0 < γ < 1) confidence intervals for μ[k] and μ[1], the largest and the smallest mean, respectively, when Σ is known and when Σ is...
