A Sequential Test for Certain Composite Hypotheses
某些复合假设的序贯检验
Summary A sequential procedure is developed to distinguish between null and alternative hypotheses of the type H 0: θ ≤ θ0 and H 1: θ ≥ θ1 (θ0 ≤ θ1) for one-parameter exponential families in such a way that the risks of type I and type II errors are smaller than some predetermined bounds. This is accomplished using observations of a sequence of random variables whose distribution is known up to the parameter θ, and involves the theory of certain tests with power one. The…
