Statistical Inference… Statistical inferenceis the process by which we acquire information and draw conclusions about populations from samples. • In order to do inference, we require the skills and knowledge of descriptive statistics, probability distributions, and sampling distributions.

Thinking Challenge • Suppose you’re interested in the average amount of money that students in this class (the population) have on them. How would you find out?
Estimation Methods Estimation Point Interval Estimation Estimation
Estimation… • The objective of estimation is to determine the approximate value of a population parameter on the basis of a sample statistic. • An estimator is a method for producing a best guess about a population value. • An estimate is a specific value provided by an estimator. • Example: We said that the sample mean is a good estimate of the population mean • The sample mean is an estimator • A particular value of the sample mean is an estimate
Point Estimator… Definition: • A point estimator draws inferences about a population by estimating the value of an unknown parameter using a single value or point. • Gives no information about how close value is to the unknown population parameter • Example: the sample mean ( ) is employed to estimate the population mean ( ).

Point Estimator… • Question: Is there a unique estimator for a population parameter? For example, is there only one estimator for the population mean? • The answer is that there may be many possible estimators • Those estimators must be ranked in terms of some desirable properties that they should exhibit
Properties of Point Estimators • The choice of point estimator is based on the following criteria • Unbiasedness • Efficiency • Consistency Unbiased Estimatorsعدم التحيز : Definition • A point estimator is said to be an unbiased estimator of the population parameter if its expected value (the mean of its sampling distribution) is equal to the population parameter it is trying to estimate • We can also define the bias of an estimator as follows
Properties of Point Estimators • To select the “best unbiased” estimator, we use the criterion of efficiency Efficiency:الكفاءة Definition • An unbiased estimator is efficient if no other unbiased estimator of the particular population parameter has a lower sampling distribution variance. • If and are two unbiased estimators of the population parameter , then is more efficient than if • The unbiased estimator of a population parameter with the lowest variance out of all unbiased estimators is called the most efficient or minimum variance unbiased estimator (MVUE).
Properties of Point Estimators Consistency :الاتساق Definition: • We say that an estimator is consistent if the probability of obtaining estimates close to the population parameter increases as the sample size increases • One measure of the expected closeness of an estimator to the population parameter is its mean squared error • The problem of selecting the most appropriate estimator for a population parameter is quite complicated

Confidence Interval Estimation Process I am 95% confident that is between 40 & 60. Population Random Sample Mean X = 50 Mean, , is unknown
Interval Estimator… • An interval estimator draws inferences about a population by estimating the value of an unknown parameter using an interval. • Provide us with a range of values that we belive, with a given level of confidence, containes a true value. • That is we say (with some ___% certainty) that the population parameter of interest is between some lower and upper bounds. • Gives Information about Closeness to Unknown Population Parameter Sample Statistic (Point Estimate) ConfidenceInterval Confidence Limit (Lower) Confidence Limit (Upper)
Point & Interval Estimation… • For example, suppose we want to estimate the mean summer income of a class of IT students. For n=25 students, is calculated to be 400 $/week. point estimate interval estimate An alternative statement is: The mean income is between 380 and 420 $/week.
Probability that the unknown population parameter θ falls within interval الفترة تسمي فترة الثقة للمعلمة θ. probability that “true” parameter is in the interval is equaled to 1-. 1- is called confidence level. 1- يسمى معامل الثقة وهو احتمال احتواء الفترة على المعلمة θ .

Example … • A computer company samples demand during lead time over 25 time periods: • Its is known that the standard deviation of demand over lead time is 75 computers. We want to estimate the mean demand over lead time with 95% confidence in order to set inventory levels…
Example … • “We want to estimate the mean demand over lead time with 95% confidence in order to set inventory levels…” • Thus, the parameter to be estimated is the pop’n mean μ. • And so our confidence interval estimator will be:
Example … • In order to use our confidence interval estimator, we need the following pieces of data: • therefore: • The lower and upper confidence limits are 340.76 and 399.56. Calculated from the data… Given

Confidence Interval for Mean of a Normal Distribution with Unknown Variance • If the sample size is large n 30 ≤ : في حالة حجم العينة كبير • The population variance is not be known • The sample standard deviation will be a sufficiently good estimator of the population standard deviation • Thus, the confidence interval for the population mean is:
Confidence Interval for Mean of a Normal Distribution with Unknown Variance • If the sample size is small and the population variance is unknown, we cannot use the standard normal distribution • If we replace the unknown with the sample st. deviation s the following quantity follows Student’s t distribution with (n – 1) degrees of freedom • The t-distribution has mean 0 and (n – 1) degrees of freedom • As degrees of freedom increase, the t-distribution approaches the standard normal distribution
