โœฆ Synopsis


It seems fair that the usual sample correlation coefficient should allow improvement when additional samples from the marginals are available. However, some intuitive attempts fail badly. Using control variates, a simple method is presented which asymptotically achieves the optimal improvement.

Comparative studies of the accuracy of diagnostic procedures often use a paired design to gain in efficiency. Standard methods for analysing data from paired designs require complete observations. In many studies, however, one of the test results may be missing for some patients. In this paper, we p

A computer program is presented that provides estimates of parameters from mathematical models describing discrete data. The program calculates maximum likelihood estimates for both complete and incomplete cases. Also included are the standard errors of the estimates, the expected values and a chi-s
