A Numerical Comparison of Some BAYESian Methods of Estimating a Binomial Parameter

Peter W Jones · Biometrical Journal · 1978

Abstract This note considers the optimal and suboptimal sequential and fixed sample size estimation of the unknown binomial parameter, p, for a beta prior distribution for p and under quadratic loss and constant observation cost. A numerical comparison of the methods is presented.
