A Power Comparison Between Nonparametric Regression Tests
In this paper, we consider three major types of nonparametric regression tests that are based on kernel and local polynomial smoothing techniques. Their asymptotic power comparisons are established systematically under the fixed and contiguous alternatives, and are also illustrated through non-asymptotic investigations and finite-sample simulation studies. MSC : primary 62G10; secondary 62G05, ...
متن کاملValidation of drop plate technique for bacterial enumeration by parametric and nonparametric tests
Drop plate technique has a priority and preference compared with the spread plate procedure, because of less time, quantity of media, effort requirement, little incubator space, and less labor intensive. The objective of this research was to compare the accuracy and fidelity of drop plate method vs. spread plate method by parametric and nonparametric statistical tests. For bacterial enumeration...
متن کاملPower and robustness of linkage tests for quantitative traits in general pedigrees.
There are numerous statistical methods for quantitative trait linkage analysis in human studies. An ideal such method would have high power to detect genetic loci contributing to the trait, would be robust to non-normality in the phenotype distribution, would be appropriate for general pedigrees, would allow the incorporation of environmental covariates, and would be appropriate in the presence...
متن کاملBayesian Nonparametric and Parametric Inference
This paper reviews Bayesian Nonparametric methods and discusses how parametric predictive densities can be constructed using nonparametric ideas.
متن کاملPower comparison of non-parametric tests: Small-sample properties from Monte Carlo experiments*
Non-parametric tests that deal with two samples include scores tests (such as the Wilcoxon rank sum test, normal scores test, log istic scores test, Cauchy scores test, etc.) and Fisher’s randomization test. B ecause the non-parametric tests generally require a large amount of computational work, there are few studies on small-sample properties, although asymptotic properties with regard to var...
