Shrinkage Confidence Procedures
... x ∈ Cθ and, thus, we can evaluate the coverage probability Pθ (θ ∈ CX ) by computing Pθ (X ∈ Cθ ), which is often a more straightforward calculation. For the usual confidence set, both Cx0 and Cθ0 are spheres, one centered at x and one centered at θ . Although the confidence set Cx+ is a sphere, the ...

[2015] Simulation-efficient shortest probability intervals.
... As defined so far, our procedure necessarily yields an interval within the range of the simulations. This is undesirable if the distribution is bounded with the boundary included in the HPD interval (as in the right graph in Fig. 1). To allow boundary estimates, we augment our simulations with a pse ...
