Statistical inferences about the dispersion of multivariate population are determined by generalized variance. In this article, we consider constructing a confidence interval and testing the hypotheses about the ratio of two independent generalized variances, and the ratio of two dependent...

This paper concerns interval estimation for the difference of two dependent proportions. An order on the sample space is constructed using an inductive method; then the smallest one-sided 1−α confidence interval under the order is derived. This interval is admissible under the set inclusion...

Inference about the difference between two normal mean vectors when the covariance matrices are unknown and arbitrary is considered. Assuming that the incomplete data are of monotone pattern, a pivotal quantity, similar to the Hotelling T2 statistic, is proposed. A satisfactory moment...

In this paper, objective Bayesian analysis of Pareto distributions under progressive Type-II censoring is considered. Three types of noninformative priors (Jeffreys prior, two reference priors and two general forms of second order probability matching prior) are given. We show that one of the...
