摘要
Parametric confidence intervals are given for linear combinations of the means of independent Poisson variables and for their continuous versions. The performance of the intervals is assessed using simulation. A real data set is used to compare the proposed intervals with known ones. The proposed intervals are shown to be superior to known ones and comparable to exact intervals.
