Subject:
The game theoretic approach to setting and solution of statistical problems is found for confidence interval estimation problem of parameter of the binomial and Hyper geometric distributions. The confidence probability and the minimax decision function are constructed for any set of admissible intervals. One half of the consructed confidence intervals is shorter than classical CIs for the same confidence probabilities. The minimax decision function under consideration enables observation number to be reduced by about 1.5 times from the classical approach for the same reliability and accuracy.
