ciASCx: Adjusted Score method of CI estimation

Description

Adjusted Score method of CI estimation

Usage

ciASCx(x, n, alp, h)

Arguments

x

- Number of successes

n

- Number of trials

alp

- Alpha value (significance level required)

h

- Adding factor

Value

A dataframe with

x

Number of successes (positive samples)

LASCx

Score Lower limit

UASCx

Score Upper Limit

LABB

Score Lower Abberation

UABB

Score Upper Abberation

ZWI

Zero Width Interval

Details

A score test approach is used after the given data x and n are modified as \(x + h\) and \(n + (2*h)\) respectively, where \(h > 0\) and for the given x and n.
