ANCOVA: A Robust Omnibus Test Based On Selected Design Points

A Robust Test for Omnibus Alternatives

For simultaneous testing for differences in location, scale, symmetry (or skewness) and tailweight between two unknown continuous distribution functions, a statistic V is proposed. Its quantiles are estimated by the bias-corrected bootstrap. Monte Carlo studies show that the V -test tends to be more robust than its competitor. Asymptotics to justify the use of the bootstrap are presented. The m...

ANCOVA: A Global Test Based on a Robust Measure of Location or Quantiles When There Is Curvature

For two independent groups, let Mj(x) be some conditional measure of location for the jth group associated with some random variable Y , given that some covariate X = x. When Mj(x) is a robust measure of location, or even some conditional quantile of Y , given X, methods have been proposed and studied that are aimed at testing H0: M1(x) = M2(x) that deal with curvature in a flexible manner. In ...

Design and Test of New Robust QCA Sequential Circuits

   One of the several promising new technologies for computing at nano-scale is quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA). In this paper, new designs for different QCA sequential circuits are presented. Using an efficient QCA D flip-flop (DFF) architecture, a 5-bit counter, a novel single edge generator (SEG) and a divide-by-2 counter are implemented. Also, some types of oscillators, a new edge-t...

A New Robust Control Design Based on Feedback Compensator for Sssc

In this paper, the modified linearized Phillips-Heffron model is utilized to theoretically analyze asingle-machine infinite-bus (SMIB) installed with SSSC. Then, the results of this analysis are used forassessing the potential of an SSSC supplementary controller to improve the dynamic stability of apower system. This is carried out by measuring the electromechanical controllability through sing...
