In inteli: Interval Estimation by Likelihood Method

Likelihood Interval for Poisson Mean of Single Sample from Poisson Distribution

Description

Likelihood interval for Poisson mean of single sample assuming Poisson distribution. Likelihood function plot is also shown. For faster calculation speed, plot option '0' is recommended.

Arguments

event	number of events; a numeric vector
unit.time	unit time for Poisson mean; default is 1
data.size	sample size. If not specified, size is assumed to be 1. For LI being more precise, sample size must be considered.
conf.level	confidence level for the interval estimation
eps	machine epsilon value; default is 1e-08
k	cutoff value for likelihood interval. If not specified, F-test is used.

Value

demo	basic demographics of data
LI	estimated interval of Poisson mean by LI
CI	estimated interval of Poisson mean by CI
plot	likelihood-related plots
