Unbiasedness of the Likelihood Ratio Testfor Lattice Conditional Independence Models
The lattice conditional independence (LCI) model N(C)<) is defined to be the set of all normal distributions N(O, E) on IR I such that for every pair L, M E 1<, XL and xM are conditionally independent given xLnM (ct , [AP] (1993a)). Here C)< is a ring of subsets (hence a distributive lattice) of the finite index set I such that 0, IE ".K, while for K E 1<, XK is the coordinate projection of x E...
متن کاملTest for homogeneity in gamma mixture models using likelihood ratio
A testing problem of homogeneity in gamma mixture models is studied. It is found that there is a proportion of the penalized likelihood ratio test statistic that degenerates to zero. The limiting distribution of this statistic is found to be the chi-bar-square distributions. The degeneration is due to the negative-definiteness of a complicated random matrix, depending on the shape parameter und...
متن کاملA New Approximation for the Null Distribution of the Likelihood Ratio Test Statistics for k Outliers in a Normal Sample
Usually when performing a statistical test or estimation procedure, we assume the data are all observations of i.i.d. random variables, often from a normal distribution. Sometimes, however, we notice in a sample one or more observations that stand out from the crowd. These observation(s) are commonly called outlier(s). Outlier tests are more formal procedures which have been developed for detec...
متن کاملGeneralized Likelihood Ratio Test for Selecting
A generalized likelihood ratio test is considered for testing acoustic propagation models in the context of environmental parameter inversion. In the following, we use the term \hierarchy of models" to denote a sequence of model structures M1;M2;... in which each particular model structure Mn contains all previous ones as special cases. We propose a combined parameter estimation and multiple se...
متن کاملModified Likelihood Ratio Test for Regime Switching
This paper proposes a modified quasi-likelihood test of Markov regime switching models. Despite its popularity in economics and finance, there are few papers that develop tests for regime switching models. Recently, Cho and White (2007) derive the asymptotic distribution of the quasi-likelihood ratio (QLR) statistic of Markov regime switching models with a scalar parameter. The asymptotic distr...
