Degenerate-Generalized Likelihood Ratio Test for One-Sided Composite Hypotheses
We propose the degenerate-generalized likelihood ratio test DGLRT for one-sided composite hypotheses in cases of independent and dependent observations. The theoretical results show that the DGLRT has controlled error probabilities and stops sampling with probability 1 under some regularity conditions. Moreover, its stopping boundaries are constants and can be easily determined using the provid...
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 کاملLikelihood Ratio Tests for Restricted Families
Likelihood ratio tests for the problem: H : F e ^1 versus o 1 H.: F ct^-c^T are defined for certain nonparametric families of distributions d*" and c^T . In particular the likelihood ratio test is defined and shown to be unbiased when <ß~. denotes the exponential distributions (possibly truncated) and c$r denotes the distributions with increasing failure rate. Comparisons are made with competin...
متن کاملComposite Hypotheses and Generalized Likelihood Ratio Tests
In many real world problems, it is difficult to precisely specify probability distributions. Our models for data may involve unknown parameters or other characteristics. Here are a few motivating examples. Example: Unknown amplitudes/delays in wireless communications. We don't always know how many relays a signal will go through, how strong the signal will be at each receiver, the distance betw...
متن کاملTesting for the Monotone Likelihood Ratio Assumption
Monotonicity of the likelihood ratio for conditioned densities is a common technical assumption in economic models. But we have found no empirical tests for its plausibility. This paper develops such a test based on the theory of order-restricted inference, which is robust with respect to the correlation structure of the distributions being compared. We apply the test to study the technology re...
