... a) We observe xn − µ >> 0. This is equivalent to the significance prob. pa = PH0 (Tn ≥ t) < 0.05 = α. b) We observe xn − µ << 0. This is equivalent to the significance prob. pb = PH0 (Tn ≤ t) < 0.05 = α. Remark 4.1. We conclude this section with a note that formulating suitable hypotheses requires g ...

... Sample Size Requirements for Estimating a Mean or Mean Difference To determine an appropriate sample size you must first declare an acceptable margin of error d. Recall that margin of error d is the wiggle room around the point estimate. This is equal to half the confidence interval width. When esti ...

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.
