One-Sided and Two-Sided Tolerance Intervals in General Mixed and Random Effects Models Using Small-Sample Asymptotics
一般混合与随机效应模型中基于小样本渐近的单侧及双侧容忍区间
The computation of tolerance intervals in mixed and random effects models has not been satisfactorily addressed in a general setting when the data are unbalanced and/or when covariates are present. This article derives satisfactory one-sided and two-sided tolerance intervals in such a general scenario, by applying small-sample asymptotic procedures. In the case of one-sided tolerance limits, the problem reduces to the interval estimation of a percentile, and accurate…
