Nonparametric Goodness-of-fit Test for Heteroscedastic Regression Models

For the heteroscedastic nonparametric regression model Yni = m(xni)+σ(xni)2ni, i = 1, ..., n, a novel method is proposed for testing that the regression function m is constant. The test statistic is motivated by recent developments in the asymptotic theory for analysis of variance when the number of factor levels is large. Its asymptotic normality is derived under the null hypothesis and suitab...

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...

Goodness-of-fit test for meta-analysis

Meta-analysis is a very useful tool to combine information from different sources. Fixed effect and random effect models are widely used in meta-analysis. Despite their popularity, they may give us misleading results if the models don't fit the data but are blindly used. Therefore, like any statistical analysis, checking the model fitting is an important step. However, in practice, the goodness...

Goodness-of-Fit Test for Monotone Functions

In this article, we develop a test for the null hypothesis that a real-valued function belongs to a given parametric set against the non-parametric alternative that it is monotone, say decreasing. The method is described in a general model that covers the monotone density model, the monotone regression and the right-censoring model with monotone hazard rate. The criterion for testing is an L p-...
