摘要:

AbstractFor a certain chemotherapy an optimal dosage is defined as the highest possible dose which is still not “too toxic.” A linear regression is assumed between toxicity and dosage. Sequential searching processes for an optimal dosage are proposed utilizing Bayesian techniques. Simulations are performed to indicate the effectiveness of the new sche

摘要:

SummaryRecently, Billard (1977) developed a partial sequential procedure for comparing a null hypothesis against a two‐sided alternative hypothesis when the parameter under test is that of the binomial distribution. In that paper, approximations to the operating characteristic and average sample number function were derived. In this note, bounds to the average sample number function are derived. Using numerical results a comparison of the approximations, bounds and empirical values is mad

摘要:

SummaryFor Dirichlet priors in a multinomial distribution the Bayesian test of a simple hypothesis parallels the Bartlett test of homogeneity of variances in normal samples. This parallelism enables a correction factor to be developed for a particular test statistic along the lines of Bartlett's correction. The performance of the corrected test statistic is studied numerically.

摘要:

SummaryThis paper describes a complex long‐term citrus experiment conducted at Griffith, New South Wales, over a period of 35 years. The design has a number of interesting features. Information on certain interactions is spread over several strata of the analysis of variance and the addition of new treatment factors, in 1955 and 1971 raised difficult problem

摘要:

SummaryUpper bounds are derived for efficiency factors in block designs with particular types of variety or block concurrence matrices. These bounds compare favorably with existing upper bounds.

SummaryIn this paper, the exact distribution of the likelihood‐ratio criterion for testing the hypothesis of sphericity in a multivariate normal distribution is derived as a mixture of incomplete beta functions. Some advantages of the present derivation are also indicate

摘要:

SummaryThis paper considers the asymptotic distributions of latent roots and vectors in principal components analysis when the parent population is non‐normal. It is shown that sufficient of T. W. Anderson's asymptotic theory in the multivariate normal case carries over for some results to be obtaine
