Accurate confidence intervals for binomial proportion and Poisson rate estimation.
TLDR
Accurate confidence interval estimators for proportions, rates, and their differences are described and MATLAB programs are made available and the resulting confidence intervals are validated and compared to common methods.About:

Overtaking method based on sand-sifter mechanism: Why do optimistic value functions find optimal solutions in multi-armed bandit problems?
TL;DR: The advantage of optimism of agents in uncertain environment by one of the simplest frameworks is suggested, which is called Overtaking method, to solve multi-armed bandit problems.
The effect of component recognition on flexibility and speech recognition performance in a spoken question answering system
W. Thomas Miller,Mike Dalton +1 more
TL;DR: The research described in this document compares the advantage in flexibility to the loss in recognition performance when using component recognition, and found that the general approach was successful in finding matches.

Planification des essais accélérés : optimisation, robustesse et analyse
TL;DR: In this paper, a methodologie de construction de plans d'essai accelere optimaux and robustes is defined, which permet de verifier si la decision quant a la qualification peut etre prise plus rapidement, or d'optimiser le plan en cours de realisation.
