Comparing two probabilities: an essay in honour of Herman Chernoff
Abstract
This is a story of a lawsuit in Japan, about an alleged incident in America thirty years before. The focus of the analysis is comparing the rates of skips in ballpoint pen writing in a diary. Chernoff proposed several methods to address the comparison between the skips observed in different passages in the diary. I also give my own alternative analysis of the data.
