Properties of frequency distributions induced by general ‘up-and-down’ methods for estimating quantiles
✍ Alessandra Giovagnoli; Nicolò Pintacuda 📂 Article 📅 1998 🏛 Elsevier Science 🌐 English ⚖ 97 KB

In this paper a general deÿnition of an up-and-down algorithm for estimating given quantiles of a binary response curve is suggested. Conditions are given for the distribution to which the design converges to be unimodal, for its mode to be 'next' to the quantile speciÿed and for the distribution to

We propose multiple-objective Bayesian optimal designs for the logit model. As an example, we consider the design problem for estimating several percentiles with possibly unequal interest in each of the percentiles. Characteristics of these designs are studied and illustrated for the case when the i

Different estimators of high quantiles, such as x c p proposed in [N.M. Markovitch, U.R. Krieger, The estimation of heavy-tailed probability density functions, their mixtures and quantiles. Computer Networks 40 (3) (2002) 459-474], Weissman's estimator x w p and the POT-method are considered. Regard
