摘要:

The practical merits of Neyman-Pearson confidence intervals versus hypothesis tests (especially p-values) are discussed. In the one-parameter case, confidence intervals convey much more comprehensible information, especially for the ultimate users of statistics. For more complicated inferences, p-values may be simpler and more routine.

摘要:

The analysis of the total expenses of medical services of an individual during a given year can be split up into two parts: the analysis of the probability of having non-zero expenses, and the analysis of the amount of the non-zero expenses. In this paper we construct a logic model for the first component, to trace which factors influence this probability.

摘要:

A major challenge in teaching statistics is to convey how statistics is used in solving real problems. Introductory courses often fail to provide students with a sense of how to apply statistical ideas. This paper will describe our experiences with a teaching approach in which students generate and analyse their own data by conducting a factorial experiment. We note our expectations, successes, and disappointments, as well as our recommendations.

摘要:

A large number of measures of association for two-way contingency tables has been suggested over the years. More recently, research into the analysis of contingency tables has concentrated on log-linear models and on higher-order tables, and measures of association have largely been neglected. However, a measure of association remains a useful concept for two-way tables, and examples still arise where none of the published measures seems entirely appropriate. Two such examples, one from weather forecasting and one from mouse chronic toxicity trials are described and attempts are made to construct suitable measures of association.

摘要:

This work proposes a theoretical and experimental study of the Principal Component Analysis of a stochastic Process (PCAP). It aims to clarify the theoretical framework and provides a simulation experimental basis for evaluating potential errors when using the PCAP as a mapping technique.

摘要:

A linear multiple regression model is fitted to a tumour volume time series. The slope parameters are used to estimate the expected lifetime extension/reduction as an unambiguous index of treatment effect.

摘要:

Five different models of the Lorenz curve are estimated using the Australian grouped income distribution data. Performances of these models are evaluated in regard to their adequacy in modelling the Lorenz curve based on empirical results.
