THE ASYMPTOTIC CONSISTENCY AND EFFICIENCY OF FIXED-SIZE
SEQUENTIAL CONFIDENCE SETS
Abstract: In the paper, a sequential confidence set based on an estimation process of a
multivariate parameter is constructed. Under the assumption that the estimation process
scaled by an increasing positive process has an asymptotic distribution it is proved that the
sequential confidence set is asymptotically consistent and asymptotically efficient. The
results are applied to the sequential confidence sets based on maximum likelihood
estimators of a multivariate parameter in the iid case and in the exponential class of
processes.
