... We just saw that the interval X ± 2 √σn contains all values µ that are “compatible” with the observed data X. (If we were to test that the mean of the box is any of these values, the P -value would be at least 2.5%.) Another way to interpret this is to imagine the interval as random. If we were to c ...

German tank problem

In the statistical theory of estimation, the problem of estimating the maximum of a discrete uniform distribution from sampling without replacement is known in English as the German tank problem, due to its application in World War II to the estimation of the number of German tanks.The analyses illustrate the difference between frequentist inference and Bayesian inference.Estimating the population maximum based on a single sample yields divergent results, while the estimation based on multiple samples is an instructive practical estimation question whose answer is simple but not obvious.
