Abstract
A review is provided of the concept confidence distributions. Material covered include: fundamentals, extensions, applications of confidence distributions and available computer software. We expect that this review could serve as a source of reference and encourage further research with respect to confidence distributions.
期刊介绍:
Statistical Methodology aims to publish articles of high quality reflecting the varied facets of contemporary statistical theory as well as of significant applications. In addition to helping to stimulate research, the journal intends to bring about interactions among statisticians and scientists in other disciplines broadly interested in statistical methodology. The journal focuses on traditional areas such as statistical inference, multivariate analysis, design of experiments, sampling theory, regression analysis, re-sampling methods, time series, nonparametric statistics, etc., and also gives special emphasis to established as well as emerging applied areas.
