Confidence Limits for Measures of Effectiveness in Weapon System Analysis.

Abstract

The report justifies the use of established statistical methods to obtain confidence intervals for measures of weapon system effectiveness. These methods apply to effectiveness measures that are generated by sampling mathematically simulated weapon/target encounters. Methods applicable for use with continuously distributed functions and with zero-or-one measures of effectiveness are briefly described, and illustrative examples are worked through in detail.
