UMP unbiased tests for multiparameter testing problems with restricted alternatives

Restricted Alternatives Tests in Competing Risk Analyses

CICILIA YUKO WADA. Restricted Alternatives Tests in Competing Risk Analyses. (Under the direction of Dr. P.K. SEN) The objective of the present study is to derive a union-intersection test statistic for subhypotheses against restricted alternatives in a competing risk situation with k causes of failure and p concomitant variables. Asymptotic properties of the proposed tests are investigated and...

Asymptotic Distribution of Ui - Lmpr Tests for Restricted Alternatives

For testing against some restricted alternatives, in the light of the most stringency and somewhere most powerful character, the UI-LMPR tests are asymptotically optimal. The asymptotic distribution theory of such UI-LMPR test statistics is developed , and the same is incorporated in the comparative study of the asymptotic powers of the restricted UI-LMPR tests and their unrestricted versions (...

Urinary Neurotransmitter Testing: Problems and Alternatives

The attention that urine-testing companies have recently drawn to the importance of amino acid therapy for neurotransmitter restoration has been of great value, especially in light of our nation’s epidemic rates of depression, anxiety, insomnia, and carbohydrate addiction. By introducing clinicians to the extraordinary ability of targeted amino acid supplements to quickly reverse these conditio...

Robust tests for testing the parameters of a normal population

This article aims to provide a simple robust method to test the parameters of a normal population by using the new diagnostic tool called the “Forward Search” (FS) method. The most commonly used procedures to test the mean and variance of a normal distribution are Student’s t test and Chi-square test, respectively. These tests suffer from the presence of outliers. We introduce the FS version of...
