Abstract

ABSTRACTIn this article, we employ the jackknife empirical likelihood (JEL) method to construct the confidence regions for the difference of the means of two d-dimensional samples. Compared with traditional EL for the two-sample mean problem, JEL is extremely simpler to use in practice and is more effective in computing. Based on the JEL ratio test, a version of Wilks’ theorem is developed. Furthermore, to improve the coverage accuracy of confidence regions, a Bartlett correction is applied. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by a simulation study and a real data analysis.
