Abstract
Asymptotic expansions are derived for the mixed binomial distribution and the posterior distribution of p for a continuous prior distribution. Expansions are also found for the first four moments of the posterior distribution. Applications to estimation and sampling inspection are discussed.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
