โฆ Synopsis
Bayes decieion produrea are considered for change point eetimation in the simple bilinear aeg- mentsd model. A diecretized normal prior density ia employed as the prior distribution for the change point index. Poeterior probability functiom are developed for thia index under e vague prior formulation on the regression parameters. The prooedure ia applied t o an example involving mercury toxicity data.

This paper addresses the problem of testing for a change about the variance of sequence of normal random variables with unknown means. It compares the power performance of five tests, namely: L-test based on Lehmann's (1951) U-statistic, B-test based on bayesian method, R-test derived from likelihoo
Dementia is characterized by accelerated cognitive decline before and after diagnosis as compared to normal ageing. Determining the time at which that rate of decline begins to accelerate in persons who will develop dementia is important both in describing the natural history of the disease process
