Question:

A program will be run with 25 different sets of input. Let θ stand for the probability that an execution error will occur during a single run. We believe that, conditional on θ, each run of the program will encounter an error with probability θ and that the different runs are independent. Prior to running the program, we believe that θ has the uniform distribution on the interval [0, 1]. Suppose that we get errors during 10 of the 25 runs.
a. Find the posterior distribution of θ.
b. If we wanted to estimate θ by using squared error loss, what would our estimate be?
Distribution
The word "distribution" has several meanings in the financial world, most of them pertaining to the payment of assets from a fund, account, or individual security to an investor or beneficiary. Retirement account distributions are among the most...
