Summary
We consider a model in accident theory which is a modified version of the one proposed and studied by Bates and Neyman (1952a). The model envisages a correlation between the two kinds of accident in the model of Bates and Neyman. We set up a test of significance that this correlation is zero. Some properties of the distribution arising from the modified approach are presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
