Asymptotically, sample proportions from a multinomial distribution converge in distribution to a multivariate normal distribution with a singular negative product correlation structure. Based on this ...

Sample size and power calculations are available for one-sample and two-sample paired and independent designs, when the proposed analysis is construction of confidence intervals of a mean (one-sample) ...

A confidence interval is a statistical concept that shows how likely it is that a range based on a sample of a population contains the mean, or the actual figure, for that data set. It’s useful when a ...

The linkage disequilibrium method is currently the most widely used single sample estimator of genetic effective population size. The commonly used software packages come with two options, referred to ...

Biometrics is a scientific journal emphasizing the role of statistics and mathematics in the biological sciences. Its object is to promote and extend the use of mathematical and statistical methods in ...

The probability that the null hypothesis will be rejected when it is actually true is called the false positive rate and is determined by the significance level of the test (called alpha which is ...

There are two methods of computing confidence intervals for the regression parameters. One is based on the profile likelihood function, and the other is based on the asymptotic normality of the ...
