Brown's paradox in the estimated confidence approach
估计置信度方法中的 Brown 悖论
A widely held notion of classical conditional theory is that statistical inference in the presence of ancillary statistics should be independent of the distribution of those ancillary statistcs. In this paper, ancillary paradoxes which contradict this notion are presented for two scenarios involving confidence estimation. These results are related to Brown’s ancillary paradox in point estimation. Moreover, the confidence coefficient, the usual constant coverage probability…
