Universal Residuals: A Multivariate Transformation.
نویسنده
چکیده
Rosenblatt's transformation has been used extensively for evaluation of model goodness-of-fit, but it only applies to models whose joint distribution is continuous. In this paper we generalize the transformation so that it applies to arbitrary probability models. The transformation is simple, but has a wide range of possible applications, providing a tool for exploratory data analysis and formal goodness-of-fit testing for a very general class of probability models. The method is demonstrated with specific examples.

UNIVERSAL COMPACTIFICATIONS OF TRANSFORMATION SEMIGROUPS
We extend the notion of semigroup compactification to the class of transformation semigroups, and determine the compactifications which are universal with respect to some topological properties.
متن کاملA Test for Multivariate Structure
We present a test for detecting`multivariate structure' in data sets. This procedure consists of transforming the data to remove the correlations, then discretizing the data and nally, studying the cell counts in the resulting contingency table. A formal test can be performed using the usual chi-squared test statistic. We give the limiting distribution of the chi-squared statistic and also pres...
متن کاملMultivariate Fault Detection using Vector Autoregressive Moving Average and Orthogonal Transformation in Residual Space
We propose the use of multivariate orthogonal space transformations and Vector Autoregressive Moving-Average (VARMA) models in combination with data-driven system identification models to improve residual-based approaches to fault detection in rolling mills. Introducing VARMA models allows us to build k-step ahead multi-dimensional prediction models including the time lags that best explain the...
متن کاملThe joint distribution of Studentized residuals under elliptical distributions
Scaled and Studentized statistics are encountered frequently, and they often play a decisive role in statistical inference and testing. For instance, taking the sample mean vector X̄ = ∑N j=1 Xj/N and the sample covariance matrix S = ∑N j=1(Xj − X̄)(Xj − X̄)/(N − 1) for an iid sample {Xj}j=1, some statistics for testing normality of the underlying distribution consist of the scaled residuals (the ...
متن کاملA multivariate heavy-tailed distribution for ARCH/GARCH residuals
A new multivariate heavy-tailed distribution is proposed as an extension of the univariate distribution of Politis (2004). The properties of the new distribution are discussed, as well as its effectiveness in modeling ARCH/GARCH residuals. A practical procedure for multiparameter numerical maximum likelihood is also given, and a real data example is worked out. JEL codes: C3; C5.
