in some quality control applications, the quality of a process or a product is described by the relationship between a response variable and one or more explanatory variables, called a profile. moreover, in most practical applications, the qualitative characteristic of a product/service is vague, uncertain and linguistic and cannot be precisely stated. the purpose of this paper is to propose a ...

In this paper, we introduce a Goodness-of-Fit test for the Multivariate Exponential Power (MEP) distribution, a multivariate extension of the Generalized Gaussian, which has recently gained considerable interest as a model for wavelet coefficients in the context of color image retrieval and spread-spectrum watermarking. We present a size and power study of this test and show Goodness-of-Fit res...

For any generalized linear model, the Pearson goodness of fit statistic is the score test statistic for testing the current model against the saturated model. The relationship between the Pearson statistic and the residual deviance is therefore the relationship between the score test and the likelihood ratio test statistics, and this clarifies the role of the Pearson statistic in generalized li...
