چکیده

We construct level-α tests for testing the null hypothesis that the mean of a non-negative population falls below a prespecified nominal value. These tests make no assumption about the distribution function other than that it be supported on [0,∞). Simple tests are derived based on either the sample mean or the sample product. The nonparametric likelihood ratio test is also discussed in this context. We also derive the uniformly most powerful monotone (UMP) tests for a sample of size no larger than 2. MSC: 62G10

depth-based nonparametric multivariate analysis and its application in review of new treatment methodology on osteoarthrotic

In this article, first, we introduce depth function as a function for center-outward ranking. Then we present and use half space or Tukey depth function as one of the most popular depth functions. In the following, multivariate nonparametric tests for location and scale difference between two population are expressed by ranking and statistics based on depth versus depth plot. Finally, accord...

Validation 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...

On Presentation a new Estimator for Estimating of Population Mean in the Presence of Measurement error and non-Response

Introduction According to the classic sampling theory, errors that are mainly considered in the estimations are sampling errors.  However, most non-sampling errors are more effective than sampling errors in properties of estimators. This has been confirmed by researchers over the past two decades, especially in relation to non-response errors that are one of the most fundamental non-immolation...

Evaluation of Seed Yield Stability of Sunflower Genotypes Using Non-Parametric Statistics

Evaluating of sunflower genotypes under different environmental conditions would be useful to identify genotypes with high stability and yield potential. In order to study yield stability of sunflower genotypes, 11 new hybrids along with four cultivars (namely Golsa, Ghasem, Shams and Farrokh) were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with four replications under four experimental fi...
