Abstract

The construction of confidence intervals for the estimate of the  parameter of the Poisson distribution is an important problem in applied statistic work. We reviewed different procedures for its construction and we carried out a simulation study to analyze the performance of the
real confidence levels when comparing them to the theoretical levels.
