Parameter Estimation Following Group Sequential Hypothesis Testing
组序贯假设检验后的参数估计
Parameter estimation techniques which fail to adjust for the interim analyses of group sequential test designs will introduce bias in much the same way that the repeated use of single sample hypothesis testing causes inflation of the type one statistical error rate. Methods based on the duality of hypothesis testing and interval estimation require definition of an ordering for the outcome space for the test statistic. In this paper, estimation following a group sequential…
