Title: Confidence intervals for parameters of multinomial distribution Author: Kamila Bárnetová Department: Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Jiří Anděl, DrSc., Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics Abstract: Confidence intervals for parameters for binomial and multinomial distribution are described in this thesis. These intervals can be used in practice, for exemple- pre-election estimates. The first two chapter are devoted to derivation of these intervals. Simulations and comparison of several selected methods can be found in the last chapter. Based on the simulations, we consider it appropriate, to choose to calculate confidence intervals for parameters of multinomial distribution intervals based on Bonferroniho inequality, or their modifications. These intervals are easy to calculate, while their coverage probability is at least 0.89. Keywords: confidence interval, multinomial distribution, binomial distribution, Bonferroni inequality |
