In this paper, we propose new sequential estimation methods based on inclusion principle. The main idea is to reformulate the estimation problems as constructing sequential random intervals and use confidence sequences to control the associated coverage probabilities. In contrast to existing asymptotic sequential methods, our estimation procedures rigorously guarantee the pre-specified levels of confidence.
