The construction of combined Bayesian-frequentist confidence intervals for a positive parameter

The construction of combined Bayesian-frequentist confidence intervals for a positive parameter

In current physics experiments, there are many cases when the value of a parameter is theoretically assumed to be nonnegative or positive. In such cases, a combined Bayesian-frequentist approach to confidence intervals for a positive parameter is adopted in this paper, and the confidence intervals a...
