A Goodness of Fit Test For Exponentiality Based on Lin-Wong Information
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
In this paper, we introduce a goodness of fit test for expo- nentiality based on Lin-Wong divergence measure. In order to estimate the divergence, we use a method similar to Vasicek’s method for estimat- ing the Shannon entropy. The critical values and the powers of the test are computed by Monte Carlo simulation. It is shown that the proposed test are competitive with other tests of exponentiality based on entropy.

On distribution-free goodness-of-fit testing of exponentiality
Local, or better, contiguous alternatives are the closest alternatives against which it is still possible to have some power. With this in mind we would like to think of goodness-of-fit tests as those which have some power against all, or a huge majority, of local alternatives. Tests of that kind are often based on nonlinear functionals, with a complicated asymptotic null distribution. Therefor...
متن کاملA New Goodness-of-Fit Test for a Distribution by the Empirical Characteristic Function
Extended Abstract. Suppose n i.i.d. observations, X1, …, Xn, are available from the unknown distribution F(.), goodness-of-fit tests refer to tests such as H0 : F(x) = F0(x) against H1 : F(x) $neq$ F0(x). Some nonparametric tests such as the Kolmogorov--Smirnov test, the Cramer-Von Mises test, the Anderson-Darling test and the Watson test have been suggested by comparing empirical ...
متن کاملA Nonparametric Goodness-of-fit-based Test for Conditional Heteroskedasticity∗
In this paper we propose a nonparametric test for conditional heteroskedasticity based on a new measure of nonparametric goodness-of-fit (R2). In analogy with the ANOVA tools for classical linear regression models, the nonparametric R2 is obtained for the local polynomial regression of the residuals from a parametric regression on some covariates. It is close to 0 under the null hypothesis of c...
متن کاملRobust Goodness of Fit Test Based on the Forward Search
The most frequency used goodness of fit tests are based on measuring the distance between the theoretical distribution function and the empirical distribution function (EDF), but presence of outliers influences these tests strongly. In this study, we propose a simple robust method for goodness of fit test by using the “Forward Search” (FS) method. The FS method is a powerful general method for ...

In this paper, our objective is to test the statistical hypothesis : ( ) ( ) for all against : ( ) ( ) 1 H F x F x x H F x F x o o o = ≠ for some , x where ( ) F x o is a known distribution function. In this study, a goodness of fit test statistics for Gumbel distribution based on Kullback-Leibler information is studied. The performance of the test under simple random sampling is investigated u...
متن کاملRobust multivariate control chart based on goodness-of-fit test
This paper proposes a distribution-free multivariate statistical process control (MSPC) chart to detect general distributional changes in multivariate process variables. The chart is deployed based on a multivariate goodness-of-fit test, which is extensible to high dimensional observations. The chart also employs data-dependent control limits, which are computed on line along with the charting ...
