Confidence Interval Estimate: a range of values so constructed that a specified proportion of the intervals costructed that way would contain the true value of a parameter. Critical Value: a point on ...
Inferences on the parameters in a two-parameter exponential lifetime model when the data are Type I censored are limited to asymptotic approximations or to conditional constructions around the ...
The following example illustrates how you can construct a bootstrap confidence interval by using the multiple responses feature in PROC TPSPLINE. Numerous epidemiological observations have indicated ...
Study: Genomic epidemiology offers high resolution estimates of serial intervals for COVID-19. Image Credit: ETAJOE/Shutterstock.com In infectious disease control, serial intervals are critical ...
Accurate estimation of home-range size often requires large numbers of observations. Radiotelemetry and direct observation are capable of yielding large sample sizes in a short period of time, but ...
Geoff Cumming receives funding from the Australian Research Council. Such research findings sound exciting because the word significant suggests important and large. But researchers often use the word ...
The number needed to treat, that is, the average number of patients a clinician needs to treat with a particular therapy to prevent one bad outcome,1 is a translation into clinical terms of the ...
