Bayesian fixed sample size procedure for selecting the better of two poisson populations with general loss function

Abstract EN

In this paper an optimal (Bayesian) fixed sample size procedure for selecting the better of two Poisson populations is proposed and studied.

Bayesian decision-theoretic approach with general loss function and Gamma priors are used to construct this procedure.

The numerical result of this procedure are given with different loss functions constant, linear and quadratic, in one equation we can obtain the Bayes risk for the three types of the loss functions : constant, linear and quadratic .

In this paper the numerical results are given by using Math Works Matlab ver.
