Theses and Dissertations
Multiple interval estimation for a set of parameters is investigated. To begin, a strategy of optimization for a multiple interval estimator (MIE) is introduced. This approach allocates distinct optimized levels to individual interval estimators so that the global expected content can be minimized while the global coverage probability is still maintained at a global level. This optimal allocation is achieved by a decision theoretic procedure which consists of two global risk functions. The major part of this manuscript is devoted to two multiple interval estimation procedures. Both procedures adopt prior information added to the classical setting, but these procedures do …
