摘要:
As an expedient for constructing approximate confidence intervals for complicated parametric functions, it is suggested that fiducial or Bayes intervals be generated by Monte Carlo methods. In each application these may be empirically tested for their frequency properties. The method was applied to the overall seeding effect in a rainfall modification experiment, and it is concluded that a useful approximate confidence interval was obtained.
