Confidence regions for comparison of two normal samples

Author

  • Rukhin, Andrew L.

Abstract

The comparison of two normal populations is considered when one is interested not only in the difference between the means but also in the ratio of the variances. Several joint confidence regions for these two parameters are obtained.
