A goodness-of-fit test for regular vine copula models

A test of goodness-of-fit for the copula densities

We consider the problem of testing hypotheses on the copula density from n bidimensional observations. We wish to test the null hypothesis characterized by a parametric class against a composite nonparametric alternative. Each density under the alternative is separated in the L2-norm from any density lying in the null hypothesis. The copula densities under consideration are supposed to belong t...

The Comparison Between Goodness of Fit Tests for Copula

‎Copula functions as a model can show the relationship between variables‎. ‎Appropriate copula function for a specific application is a function that shows the dependency between data in a best way‎. ‎Goodness of fit tests theoretically are the best way in selection of copula function‎. ‎Different ways of goodness of fit for copula exist‎. ‎In this paper we will examine the goodness of fit test...

A goodness-of-fit test for Archimedean copula models in the presence of right censoring

Goodness-of-fit Tests for Archimedean Copula Models

In this paper, we propose two tests for parametric models belonging to the Archimedean copula family, one for uncensored bivariate data and the other one for right-censored bivariate data. Our test procedures are based on the Fisher transform of the correlation coefficient of a bivariate (U, V ), which is a one-toone transform of the original random pair (T1, T2) that can be modeled by an Archi...

A Goodness of Fit Test For Exponentiality Based on Lin-Wong Information

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 exponentia...
