Abstract

Consider the several methods of constructing interval for relative ration from two independent binomial samples. The special interests are gives in the cases of low rates and small samples. bias-corrected and accelerated bootstrap method is proposed to overcome are the non-efficiency of current methods based on asymptotic resuts. Simulation studies are presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.
