Proof of a Key Inequality for Lattice Event Probabilities with Equal Odds
Abstract Levin and Leu (2021) introduced some key inequalities that underlie the lower bound formula for the probability of lattice events when using adaptive members of the Levin-Robbins-Leu family of sequential subset selection procedures for binary outcomes. Here we provide a rigorous proof of the key inequality for each adaptive procedure in the special case of equal odds parameters. We also provide some further insight into why the key inequality holds for arbitrary odds parameters and we present a complete proof in that case for a simple yet non-trivial prototype example. Two errata in the abovementioned publication are also corrected herein.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of Sequential Analysis is to contribute to theoretical and applied aspects of sequential methodologies in all areas of statistical science. Published papers highlight the development of new and important sequential approaches.
Interdisciplinary articles that emphasize the methodology of practical value to applied researchers and statistical consultants are highly encouraged. Papers that cover contemporary areas of applications including animal abundance, bioequivalence, communication science, computer simulations, data mining, directional data, disease mapping, environmental sampling, genome, imaging, microarrays, networking, parallel processing, pest management, sonar detection, spatial statistics, tracking, and engineering are deemed especially important. Of particular value are expository review articles that critically synthesize broad-based statistical issues. Papers on case-studies are also considered. All papers are refereed.
