ea-mINATIOO OF STATISTICAL TESTS FOR MULTIVARIATE
نویسنده
چکیده
SUMMARY. Combination of {independent or dependent} tests for several multivariate hypotheses against restricted alternatives is considered. This includes a broad review of the classical Fisher method based on the observed significance levels (with necessary modifications). a variant form of the step-down procedure. a more plausible version of the Roy union-intersection principle and an extension of the well known Mantel-Haenszel procedure. The primary emphasis is placed on applications. and inviewof that. various practical aspects of these diverse methods are discussed thoroughly. Nevertheless. the methodological aspects of this study rest on some theory which has not appeared in a systematic and unified form elsewhere. and hence. is included here. Connections of this theory to other related areas • such as. repeated significance tests and progressive censoring schemes. are also stressed.

On the Canonical-Based Goodness-of-fit Tests for Multivariate Skew-Normality
It is well-known that the skew-normal distribution can provide an alternative model to the normal distribution for analyzing asymmetric data. The aim of this paper is to propose two goodness-of-fit tests for assessing whether a sample comes from a multivariate skew-normal (MSN) distribution. We address the problem of multivariate skew-normality goodness-of-fit based on the empirical Laplace tra...
متن کاملControlling false discoveries in genome scans for selection.
Population differentiation (PD) and ecological association (EA) tests have recently emerged as prominent statistical methods to investigate signatures of local adaptation using population genomic data. Based on statistical models, these genomewide testing procedures have attracted considerable attention as tools to identify loci potentially targeted by natural selection. An important issue with...

We examine the Rasch model for latent structure para- meters in binary and multiple response questionnaires and develop methodologies and data-analytic tools for assessing collaboration/che- ating in multiple choice tests
متن کاملMixed Decision Trees: An Evolutionary Approach
In the paper, a new evolutionary algorithm (EA) for mixed tree learning is proposed. In non-terminal nodes of a mixed decision tree different types of tests can be placed, ranging from a typical univariate inequality test up to a multivariate test based on a splitting hyperplane. In contrast to classical top-down methods, our system searches for an optimal tree in a global manner, i.e. it learn...
متن کاملOn the non-parametric multivariate control charts in fuzzy environment
Multivariate control chats are generally used in situations where the simultaneous monitoring or control of two or more related quality characteristics is necessary. In most processes in the real world, distribution of the process characteristics are unknown or at least non-normal, so the non-parametric or distribution-free charts are desirable. Most non-parametric statistical process-control t...
