Finite sampling inequalities: an application to two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistics.

چکیده
We review a finite-sampling exponential bound due to Serfling and discuss related exponential bounds for the hypergeometric distribution. We then discuss how such bounds motivate some new results for two-sample empirical processes. Our development complements recent results by Wei and Dudley (2012) concerning exponential bounds for two-sided Kolmogorov - Smirnov statistics by giving corresponding results for one-sided statistics with emphasis on "adjusted" inequalities of the type proved originally by Dvoretzky et al. (1956) and by Massart (1990) for one-sample versions of these statistics.

Goodness-of-Fit Test The Distribution of the Kolmogorov–Smirnov, Cramer–vonMises, and Anderson–Darling Test Statistics for Exponential Populations with Estimated Parameters
This article presents a derivation of the distribution of the Kolmogorov–Smirnov, Cramer–von Mises, and Anderson–Darling test statistics in the case of exponential sampling when the parameters are unknown and estimated from sample data for small sample sizes via maximum likelihood.
متن کاملNon-Parametric Testing of Distributions – the Epps-Singleton two-sample test using the Empirical Characteristic Function
In statistics, two-sample tests are used to determine whether two samples have been drawn from the same population. A widely used test as such is the Kolmogorov-Smirnov two-sample test. There are other distribution-free tests which might be applied in similar occasions. In this article, we describe a two-sample omnibus test introduced by Epps and Singleton, which has – albeit being distribution...
متن کاملGoodness of fit Tests for Generalized Frechet Distribution
An important problem in statistics is to obtain information about the form of the population from which the sample is drawn. Goodness of fit test is employed to determine how well the observed sample data "fits" some proposed model. The standard goodness of fit statistics are inappropriate when the parameters of the hypothesized distribution are estimated from the data used for the test. In thi...
متن کاملTesting Identifying Assumptions in Nonseparable Panel Data Models
Recent work on nonparametric identification of average partial effects (APEs) from panel data require restrictions on individual or time heterogeneity. Identifying assumptions under the “generalized first-differencing” category, such as time homogeneity (Chernozhukov, Fernandez-Val, Hahn, and Newey, 2013), have testable equality restrictions on the distribution of the outcome variable. This pap...
متن کاملFuzzy Empirical Distribution Function: Properties and Application
The concepts of cumulative distribution function and empirical distribution function are investigated for fuzzy random variables. Some limit theorems related to such functions are established. As an application of the obtained results, a method of handling fuzziness upon the usual method of Kolmogorov–Smirnov one-sample test is proposed. We transact the α-level set of imprecise observations in ...
