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...
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 کاملAn empirical goodness-of-fit test for multivariate distributions
An empirical test is presented by which one may determine whether a specified multivariate probability model is suitable to describe the underlying distribution of a set of observations. This test is based on the premise that, given any probability distribution, the Mahalanobis distances corresponding to data generated from that distribution will likewise follow a distinct distribution that can...
متن کاملAn empirical likelihood goodness-of-fit test for time series
Standard goodness-of-fit tests for a parametric regression model against a series of nonparametric alternatives are based on residuals arising from a fitted model.When a parametric regression model is compared with a nonparametric model, goodness-of-fit testing can be naturally approached by evaluating the likelihood of the parametric model within a nonparametric framework. We employ the empiri...
متن کاملA Goodness-of-fit Test for Copulae Based on the Probability Integral Transform
Copulae is a growing field of interest and application for dependency modelling. There is however no predominant way of choosing the copula model that best fits a given data set. We introduce a new goodness-of-fit test, based on the probability integral transform. The test is consistent, numerically efficient and incorporates a weighting functionality. Results show that the test performs well a...
