  Equal probability of correct selection for bernoulli selection procedures
 
 
Title: Equal probability of correct selection for bernoulli selection procedures
Author: Jennison, Christopher
Appeared in: Communications in statistics
Paging: Volume 12 (1983) nr. 24 pages 2887-2896
Year: 1983
Contents: The problem of selecting the Bernoulli population which has the highest "success" probability is considered. It has been noted in several articles that the probability of a correct selection is the same, uniformly in the Bernoulli p-vector (P1,P2,….,Pk), for two or more different selection procedures. We give a general theorem which explains this phenomenon. An application of particular interest arises when "strong" curtailment of a single-stage procedure (as introduced by Bechhofer and Kulkarni (1982a) )is employed; the corresponding result for "weak" curtailment of a single-stage procedure needs no proof. The use of strong curtailment in place of weak curtailment requires no more (and usually many less) observations to achieve the same.
