A uniform saddlepoint expansion for the null-distribution of the Wilcoxon- Mann-Whitney statistic
The authors give the exact coefficient of 1/N in a saddlepoint approximation to the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney null-distribution. This saddlepoint approximation is obtained from an Edgeworth approximation to the exponentially tilted distribution. Moreover, the rate of convergence of the relative error is uniformly of order O(1/N) in a large deviation interval as defined in Feller (1971). The propose...
متن کاملA Nonparametric Control Chart based on the Mann-Whitney Statistic
Nonparametric or distribution-free charts can be useful in statistical process control when there is limited knowledge about the underlying process. In this paper a Shewhart-type chart is considered for the location, based on the Mann-Whitney statistic. The control limit calculations use Lugannani-Rice saddlepoint, Edgeworth and other approximation methods along with Monte Carlo estimation and ...
متن کاملA data-adaptive methodology for finding an optimal weighted generalized Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon statistic
Xie and Priebe [2002. “Generalizing the Mann–Whitney–Wilcoxon Statistic”. J. Nonparametric Statist. 12, 661–682] introduced the class of weighted generalized Mann–Whitney–Wilcoxon (WGMWW) statistics which contained as special cases the classical Mann–Whitney test statistic and many other nonparametric distribution-free test statistics commonly used for the two-sample testing problem. The two-sa...
متن کاملOptimizing Classi er Performance Via the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney Statistic
Cross entropy and mean squared error are typical cost functions used to optimize classi er performance. The goal of the optimization is usually to achieve the best correct classi cation rate. However, for many two-class real-world problems, the ROC curve is a more meaningful performance measure. We demonstrate that minimizing cross entropy or mean squared error does not necessarily maximize the...
متن کاملmodeling loss data by phase-type distribution
بیمه گران همیشه بابت خسارات بیمه نامه های تحت پوشش خود نگران بوده و روش هایی را جستجو می کنند که بتوانند داده های خسارات گذشته را با هدف اتخاذ یک تصمیم بهینه مدل بندی نمایند. در این پژوهش توزیع های فیزتایپ در مدل بندی داده های خسارات معرفی شده که شامل استنباط آماری مربوطه و استفاده از الگوریتم em در برآورد پارامترهای توزیع است. در پایان امکان استفاده از این توزیع در مدل بندی داده های گروه بندی ...
