Table 6 Comparison of interval estimates and empirical coverage probabilities for the proposed and classical methods across species and conditions.
From: Interval estimation of thermal summation parameters in forensically important insects
Species / Condition | Proposed method | Ikemoto and Takai’s method | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
Interval (k) | Coverage probability | Interval (k) | Coverage probability | |
Necrodes littoralis | [315, 461] | 0.97 | [421, 517] | 0.75 |
Creophilus maxillosus (all) | [339, 600] | 0.97 | [379, 456] | 0.59 |
Creophilus maxillosus (w/o outliers) | [341, 486] | 0.94 | – | – |
