Bulletin of Statistics & Economics;  September 22, 2008 ;     700+ words ...ABSTRACT We consider the problem of setting confidence intervals for the stress-strength probability using empirical likelihood techniques with paired samples. Some modifications to the usual empirical likelihood technique like bootstrapping and smoothing are considered. The intervals are studied

The American Statistician;  November 1, 1997 ;     700+ words ...1. INTRODUCTION The problem of estimating a distributional parameter is a common one that has been studied for many years. The most common method used to derive an interval estimate for a parameter is to find a pivotal quantity. Another method that is sometimes used when pivotal quantities are more
