Entropy-Based Independence Test
This paper presents a new test of independence (linear and nonlinear) among distributions, based on the entropy of Shannon. The main advantages of the presented approach are the fact that this measure does not need to assume any type of theoretical probability distribution and has the ability to capture the linear and nonlinear dependencies, without requiring the specification of any kind of de...
متن کاملA Test for Independence Based on the Correlation Dimension
This paper presents a test of independence that can be applied to the estimated residuals of any time series model that can be transformed into a model driven by independent and identically distributed errors. The rst order asymptotic distribution of the test statistic is independent of estimation error provided that the parameters of the model under test can be estimated p n{consistently. Beca...
متن کاملA test of independence based on a generalized correlation function
In this paper, we propose a novel test of independence based on the concept of correntropy. We explore correntropy from a statistical perspective and discuss its properties in the context of testing independence. We introduce the novel concept of parametric correntropy and design a test of independence based on it. We further discuss how the proposed test relaxes the assumption of Gaussianity. ...
متن کاملA Permutation-Based Kernel Conditional Independence Test
Determining conditional independence (CI) relationships between random variables is a challenging but important task for problems such as Bayesian network learning and causal discovery. We propose a new kernel CI test that uses a single, learned permutation to convert the CI test problem into an easier two-sample test problem. The learned permutation leaves the joint distribution unchanged if a...
متن کاملLeast-Squares Independence Test
Identifying the statistical independence of random variables is one of the important tasks in statistical data analysis. In this paper, we propose a novel non-parametric independence test based on a least-squares density ratio estimator. Our method, called least-squares independence test (LSIT), is distribution-free, and thus it is more flexible than parametric approaches. Furthermore, it is eq...
