Abstract

Computation of one-sided simultaneous confidence bands is detailed for a simple linear regression under interval restrictions on the predictor variable, using a method due to Uusipaikka (1983,J. Amer. Statist. Assoc.,78, 638–644). The case of a single interval restriction is emphasized. A WWW-based applet for computing the bands is described.
