The problem of unbiased estimation of the parameter θ in the binomial and Poisson distributions is considered. The variance of the estimate is required not to exceed a preassigned bound, B. For the ...

Continuous Variable: can take on any value between two specified values. Obtained by measuring. Covariance: a measure of the direction of the linear relationship between two variables. Discrete ...

Estimating equations are used to develop simple non-iterative estimates of the κ-coefficient that can be used when there are more than two random raters and/or unbalanced data (each subject is not ...
