Table 2.

Over-all results of simulations of independent data. Data sets with p₀ ranging from 0.6 to 0.99 were simulated. The summary statistics of the absolute difference between target value and its estimate show a rather varying performance for all methods, with PRE having the smallest bias and variation.
