Efficient Sequential Designs with Binary Data
Abstract
A class of sequential designs for estimating the percentiles of a quantal response curve is proposed. Its updating rule is based on an efficient summary of all of the data available via a parametric model. The logit-MLE version of the proposed designs can be viewed as a natural analog of the Robbins—Monro procedure in the case of binary data. It is shown to be asymptotically consistent, optimal, and nonparametric via its connection with the latter procedure. For certain choices of initial designs, the proposed method performs very well in a simulation study for sample sizes up to 35. A nonparametric sequential design, via the Spearman—Kärber estimator, for estimating the median is also proposed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
