Abstract | ||
In many practical situations the experimenter is confronted with the problem of choosing the best one of a number of populations or categories or ranking them according to their performance . This paper derives a procedure for selecting the better of Two Geometric populations employing a decision-theoretic Bayesian framework with Beta prior under general loss function . the numerical results for this procedure are given by using Math Works Matlab ver 7.0.1 with different loss functions constant , linear and quadratic , where in one equation we can obtain the Bayes risk for the three types of the loss functions : constant , linear and quadratic . | ||
