Suppose independent random samples are available from k exponential populations with a common location Γ and scale parameters 1; 2; : : : ; k , respectively. The population corresponding to the largest sample mean is selected. The problem is to estimate a quantile of the selected population. In this paper, we derive the uniformly minimum variance unbiased estimator (UMVUE) using (U-V) method of Robbins (in:

## Abstract Consider __k__ independent exponential populations with location parameters ΞΌ~1~,β¦, ΞΌ~__k__~ and a common scale parameter or standard deviation ΞΈ. Let ΞΌ~__(k)__~ be the largest of the ΞΌ's and define a population to be good if its location parameter exceeds ΞΌ~__(k)__~ βΞ~1~. A selection
Let (X 1 , Y 1 ), (X 2 , Y 2 ), ..., be two-dimensional random vectors which are independent and distributed as (X, Y). The asymptotic normality and a law of the iterated logarithm are obtained.
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
