Inferences concerning the Mean of the Gamma Distribution
关于 Gamma 分布均值的推断
Approximate tests for the mean of a gamma distribution with both parameters unknown are derived. The power of these tests is close to the power of the corresponding uniformly most powerful tests for the mean when the shape parameter is assumed known. The tests are studied by Monte Carlo simulation, and limiting results are also provided as the shape parameter goes to zero or infinity, as well as for the large-sample case. A limited study indicating the nonrobustness of the…
