Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Based on grouped data, the asymptotic nonnality of the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) for mean of the single-parameter exponential distribution is proved from a new point of view, and the asymptotic confidence interval is derived. Comparing the results of CHEN and MIE, a Monte carlo simulation shows that it is a little more effective.
