How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Forward stability and model path selection (2021, neutral): “…populations, the ranking and selection literature quickly moved to the ranking and selection of multinomial parameters from the same population (Bechhofer et al. 1959; Kesten and Morse 1959), focusing primarily on exactly this problem—identifying the most probable multinomial event(s)…”
On Selecting the Most Probable Category (1971, methodology): “, [1] have considered a fixed sample procedure.”
A Note on a Subset Selection Procedure for the Most Probable Multinomial Event (2006, methodology): “For the problem of selecting the most probable cell, Bechhofer et al. (1959) considered a fixed-sample-size procedure under the so-called indifference-zone approach.”
