I've become alarmed recently at the number of young engineers (i.e. those with less than 5 years of work experience), who seem to have missed the college course on applied probability and don't know ...

Sample size and power calculations are available for one-sample and two-sample paired and independent designs, when the proposed analysis is construction of confidence intervals of a mean (one-sample) ...

The problem of finding confidence intervals for the success parameter of a binomial experiment has a long history, and a myriad of procedures have been developed. Most exploit the duality between ...

An expected volume coefficient (EV) is defined and proposed to displace volume and selectivity as criteria for the evaluation of confidence sets, and a proposal for evaluation is given. This proposal ...

The linkage disequilibrium method is currently the most widely used single sample estimator of genetic effective population size. The commonly used software packages come with two options, referred to ...
