How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Simultaneous coverage for dependent interval sets

Example

Take the location experiment with Θ=R and sample space (X,A)=(R,B(R)): under parameter θ, X equals θ+k/10 with probability 1/10 for each k=1,…,10. For both coordinates set ψi(θ)=θ and report the interval Ci(x)=[x−9/10,x], i=1,2. Each interval has marginal coverage 9/10. The two coverage events are identical, so their simultaneous coverage is also 9/10. With α1=α2=1/10 and α=1/5, Bonferroni guarantees at least 4/5; the bound is conservative here because of perfect dependence.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The location experiment and two confidence-set procedures in the Example, together with the confidence-set definition and simultaneous-coverage theorem below.

[F1]

Statistical experiments: an experiment is a measurable sample space, parameter set, and family of probability measures on that sample space.

[F2]

Confidence sets and coverage: a confidence-set procedure has a measurable membership section for each candidate parameter, and its coverage is the probability that it contains the true parameter.

[F3]

Bonferroni simultaneous coverage: if m marginal confidence sets have coverage at least 1−αi and ∑iαi≤α, their joint coverage is at least 1−α without an independence assumption.

[A1]

The sample space is (X,A)=(R,B(R)). For each θ∈R, Pθ places mass 1/10 at each of the ten distinct points θ+k/10, 1≤k≤10; ψ1(θ)=ψ2(θ)=θ and C1(x)=C2(x)=[x−9/10,x].

Verification

Given: The family of ten-point laws, targets, and interval procedures in the Example.

1.1givenA1F1F2algebra

For each candidate η∈R, the membership section of either interval procedure is {x:η∈[x−9/10,x]}=[η,η+9/10], a Borel set, so [F2] applies. Under Pθ, the true value θ is included exactly for k=1,…,9; hence each marginal coverage is 9/10.

2.1givenA1F3step 1.1algebra∎

The two interval procedures are equal for every observation, so their membership events coincide and joint coverage is 9/10. Since α1+α2=1/5, [F3] gives the general lower bound 1−1/5=4/5, which this example satisfies. The equality of the two events shows that independence is not assumed.
