Using Decision Trees for the Teaching of Statistical Estimation
摘要
In many experiments or research, the researcher wants to know whether the difference in means, proportions or variances between two populations is significant, or sometimes if the average, proportion or variance are near to a standard value; also s/he will be interested in an interval in which is expected to contain the value of the difference in means, proportions and variances of the two populations, or the average, proportion or variance of a population. In all this cases the researcher has to rely on statistical estimation and choose the most appropriate procedure.
