Title: Confidence intervals for the coefficient of variation with known mean and a bounded standard deviation Authors:  Wararit Panichkitkosolkul - Thammasat University (Thailand) [presenting]
Abstract: The natural parameter space is known to be bounded in many real applications such as engineering, sciences and social sciences. The standard confidence interval derived from the classical Neyman procedure is unsatisfactory in the case of a bounded parameter space. New confidence intervals for the coefficient of variation associated with a normal distribution with a known population mean and a bounded standard deviation are proposed. A simulation study has been conducted to compare the performance of the proposed confidence intervals.
