Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleImprovement of Bayesian Credible Interval for a Small Binomial Proportion Using Logit TransformationToru Ogura, Takemi YanagimotoA novel credible interval of the binomial proportion is proposed by improving the Highest Posterior Density (HPD) interval using the logit transformation. It is constructed in two steps: first the HPD interval for the logit transformation of the binomial proportion is driven and then the corresponding credible interval of the binomial proportion is calculated by the inverse logit transformation of … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 20 Nov 2018 · 7,978 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBayesian Approach to the Estimation of a Poisson Mean with Application to NBA Three Point AttemptsPatricia Pepple WilliamsonBayesian Credible Intervals are proposed for a Poisson mean. These intervals are compared to five classical confidence intervals found in the literature. A simulation study is performed to compare the procedures using two different criteria and it is attempted to determine which of the procedures performs best for various values of the parameter and sample size. Estimation of the number … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 12 Nov 2018 · 7,089 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Inferences of the Rest Lifetimes of Ball Bearings' Residual Lifetimes Based on Rayleigh Residual Type II Censored DataGhassan K. Abufoudeh, Omar M. Bdair, Raed R. Abu AwwadIn this study, we consider statistical inference problems for the residual life data that come from the Rayleigh model based on type II censored data. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian approaches are used to estimate the scale and location parameters for the Rayleigh model, the Gibbs sampling procedure is used to draw Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) samples and MCMC samples … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 1 Aug 2016 · 7,161 accessesView PDF Cite
