The hand-calculating approximated classical limits for c having high accuracy are given to meet practical engineering needs. Using Odeh and Owen's computational method and Brent's algorithm, the tables for the r-upper exact classical limits of coefficient of variation for normal distribution are calculated for the different confidence coefficient y, the sample size n=1(1)30,40,60,120, the sample coefficient of variation c=0.01(0.01)0.20. It is shown that if n<8,c<0.20, then the V -upper exact classical limits cu for c are slightly higher than the exact fiducial limits cu,F for c if. n>8, c<0.02,then cu-cu,f<5x10-6展开更多

This paper focuses on the maximum likelihood estimation of joint location and scale models of the skew-normal distribution. The proposed procedure can simultaneously estimate parameters in the location model and the scale model. Simulation studies and a real example are used to illustrate the proposed methodologies.展开更多
