Estimation procedures and prediction intervals |
|
| Abstract: | The starship, as an alternative or companion procedure to the bootstrap, introduced by Owen (1988), and the well known maximum likelihood estimation procedure were used to find prediction intervals for the future sample mean of an exponential distribution. Some remarks based on a simulation study are made on the differences between the two procedures. |
