95% and 99% CIs of the median response dose γ for the PF, Fieller, delta, and PB methods for the Hewlett data, the Puerperants data, and the Beetles data Note. We also simulate the estimated UP (%), CP (%), CW, and ML/(ML+MR) for all four methods in the scenarios where the parameters ,
, γ, and β are taken or estimated from each of the datasets. The simulation is based on 10 000 replicates
