A COMPARISON OF SOME PARAMETRIC AND NON-PARAMETRIC DISCRIMINATION PROCEDURES IN NEGATIVE EXPONENTIAL POPULATIONS.
Abstract
A brief discussion of the literature concerned with the two-population discrimination problem is presented and several procedures based on the likelihood ratio for discrimination between negative exponentially distributed populations are proposed. The small sample and asymptotic performance of these procedures is compared with that of non-parametric procedures and the classical linear discriminant function. Some guidelines for the use of the prcedures discussed are presented. (Author)
