Stopping Rules in Balanced Allocation Problems: Exact and Asymptotic Distributions
Published
Author(s)
Abstract
The properties of balanced randomization procedures for several treatments under a general (non-uniform) assignment are reviewed. The truncated multinomial design and the random allocation rule are comparer in terms of selection bias and accidental bias. The distributions of target fulfillment instants are determined.Citation
