Abstract
We consider the problem of maximizing the probability function which is kno wn to the accuracy of a class of distributions. it is shown that the unifor m distribution provides the worst solution to this problem under certain sy mmetry conditions imposed on the distributions in the class and on the set, whose probability measure is calculated.
