A network algorithm for the exact treatment of the 2xk contingency table
Patel, Nitin R.; Mehta, C. R. (1980-09-20)A common statistical problem encountered in biomedical research is to test the hypothesis that the parameters of k binomial populations are all equal. An exact test of significance of this hypothesis is possible in ... -
On wait-and-see stochastic linear programmes: an application and an algorithm
Patel, Nitin R. (1980-08-27)This paper develops a computational algorithm for estimating the mean objective function value of a stochastic linear programming problem of the passive or wait-and-see type. The algorithm is applied to a problem ... -
