摘要

Our main focus is on count data arising from statistical ecology. Anscombe (1949) emphasized negative binomial (NB) modeling for overdispersed count data. A large majority of existing methodologies, both sequential and nonsequential, were reviewed by Mukhopadhyay and Banerjee (2012). We assume that the thatch parameter remains known and revisit a sequential confidence interval estimation method for an NB mean proposed by Willson and Folks (1983) that may not always guarantee a positive lower confidence limit. Moreover, any postsampling adjustment of their lower confidence limit would compromise the preset confidence coefficient. In this article, we provide an appropriate resolution by estimating the NB mean with a fixed-accuracy confidence interval such that both confidence limits are positive. Our proposed purely sequential and two-stage estimation methodologies enjoy asymptotic consistency and asymptotic efficiency properties. Next, we consider estimating the ratio of two NB means under a two-sample setup assuming that the thatch parameters remain known with equal sample sizes and provide both purely sequential and two-stage methodologies. These are shown to enjoy asymptotic consistency and asymptotic efficiency properties. Extensive sets of analyses based on both simulated data and real data from potato beetle infestation are presented to highlight some of the exciting small- and moderate-sample features of the proposed estimation methodologies.
