Loss functions, utility functions and Bayesian sample size determination
This thesis consists of two parts. The purpose of the first part of the research is to obtain Bayesian sample size determination (SSD) using loss or utility function with a linear cost function. A number of researchers have studied the Bayesian SSD problem. One group has considered utility (loss) fu...
