Confidence Intervals for Population Size in a Capture-Recapture Problem.

Zhang, Xiao 14 August 2007 (has links) (PDF)
In a single capture-recapture problem, two new Wilson methods for interval estimation of population size are derived. Classical Chapman interval, Wilson and Wilson-cc intervals are examined and compared in terms of their expected interval width and exact coverage properties in two models. The new approach performs better than the Chapman in each model. Bayesian analysis also gives a different way to estimate population size.

Confidence Intervals for a Ratio of Binomial Proportions Based on Paired Data

Bonett, Douglas, Price, Robert M. 15 September 2006 (has links)
Four interval estimation methods for the ratio of marginal binomial proportions are compared in terms of expected interval width and exact coverage probability. Two new methods are proposed that are based on combining two Wilson score intervals. The new methods are easy to compute and perform as well or better than the method recently proposed by Nam and Blackwelder. Two sample size formulas are proposed to approximate the sample size required to achieve an interval estimate with desired confidence level and width.

Estimating the Ratio of Two Poisson Rates

Price, Robert M., Bonett, Douglas G. 01 September 2000 (has links)
Classical and Bayesian methods for interval estimation of the ratio of two independent Poisson rates are examined and compared in terms of their exact coverage properties. Two methods to determine sampling effort requirements are derived.
