On Sample Size and Quick Simultaneous Confidence Interval Estimations for Multinomial Proportions

Asymptotically, sample proportions from a multinomial distribution converge in distribution to a multivariate normal distribution with a singular negative product correlation structure. Based on this result, we propose a new approach to estimate the sample size requirement for constructing quick sim...
