Abstract

The small sample likelihood inference method (Barndorff-Neilsen and Cox, 1994) is applied to Fieller’s problem for normal distributions with unknown unequal variances and extended to non-normal distributions. The proposed method is applied to a bioequivalence study of two formulations of a drug product. Examples and simulation studies show that the proposed method for the ratio of means demonstrates essentially exact coverage probabilities even for small samples.
