Simultaneous one-sided tolerance intervals for sets of contrasts from normal populations

Abstract

This paper considers the problem of constructing simultaneous prediction and tolerance intervals for sets of contrasts of normal variables in situations where simultaneous intervals are available. Tables are given with critical values used in simultaneous tolerance bounds for two classes of contrasts: pairwise many-one and profile type.

Keywords:

• prediction and tolerance bounds
• pairwise many-one contrasts
• profile type contrasts
