Asymptotic comparison of two-stage selection procedures under quasi-Bayesian framework
share
This paper revisits the procedures suggested by Dudewicz and Dalal (1975) and Rinott (1978) which are designed for selecting the population with the highest mean among independent Gaussian populations with unknown and possibly different variances. In a previous paper Jacobovic and Zuk (2017) made a conjecture that the relative asymptotic efficiency of these procedures equals to the ratio of two certain sequences. This work suggests a quasi-Bayesian modelling of the problem under which this conjecture is valid. In addition, this paper motivates an open question regarding the extreme value distribution of the maxima of triangular array of independent student-t random variables with an increasing number of degrees of freedom.
