Generalized Order Statistics, Bahadur Representations, and Sequential Nonparametric Fixed-Width Confidence Intervals.

Abstract

This paper introduces confidence intervals formed by a pair of generalized order statistics, develops Bahadur-type representation theory for these order statistics, and constructs corresponding sequential fixed-width confidence interval procedures. Previous work of Bahadur (1966) and Geertsema (1970) is sharpened and extended. Keywords: Nonparametric statistics; and Asymptotic theory.
