摘要
This paper considered interval estimations for the mean of lognormal distribution with excess zeros. We proposed two methods for interval estimation based on an approximate generalized pivotal quantity and a fiducial quantity. Simulation results show that the fiducial approach has highly accurate coverage probability and fairly low bias. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
