The Use of the Concept of a Future Observation in Goodness‐Of‐Fit Problems
TL;DR: In this article, a Bayesian and sampling approach is proposed to estimate the degree of a polynomial response function, where the Bayesian part is effected by using the distribution of a future observation, while the sampling argument concerns itself with the distribution a "chi-squared like" statistic, which measures discrepancies of observed frequencies from those predicted by the probability distribution of the future observation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bayesian analysis of hybrid life tests with exponential failure times
TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid life test procedure is discussed from the Bayesian viewpoint, where a total ofn items are placed on test, failed items are either not replaced or are replaced, and the test is terminated either when a pre-chosen number, K, of items have failed, or when a predefined time on test has been reached.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation of Rules for Dealing With Outliers in Small Samples from the Normal Distribution: I: Estimation of the Mean
Irwin Guttman,Dennis E. Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of three rules for dealing with outliers in small samples of size n from the normal distribution N(μ, σ2) is investigated when the primary objective of sampling is to obtain an accurate estimate of μ.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bayesian Estimation of the Binomial Parameter
Norman R. Draper,Irwin Guttman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a Bayesian approach is proposed to estimate the binomial distribution when the other parameter p is known and when p is unknown, which is a very practical approach and is especially easy to apply in small problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
The distribution of certain regression statistics
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss some new results which throw light on these questions and make adjustments to the F-test to correct the difficulty of selecting the largest contributor in multiple regression analysis.
