We consider the problem of estimating the parameter p of a Binomial(n,p) distribution when p lies in the symmetric interval about 1/2 of the form [a, 1 - a], with a ∈ (0, 1/2). For a class of loss ...

The Binomial test, sometimes referred to as the Binomial exact test, is a test used in sampling statistics to assess whether a proportion of a binary variable is equal to some hypothesized value. In ...

The binomial group-testing problem is extended to the case in which the common probability p of a unit being defective is unknown. A Bayes "non-mixing" procedure R(1) is derived and compared with ...
