Validation of drop plate technique for bacterial enumeration by parametric and nonparametric tests

Drop plate technique has a priority and preference compared with the spread plate procedure, because of less time, quantity of media, effort requirement, little incubator space, and less labor intensive. The objective of this research was to compare the accuracy and fidelity of drop plate method vs. spread plate method by parametric and nonparametric statistical tests. For bacterial enumeration...

Benchmarking Non-Parametric Statistical Tests

Although non-parametric tests have already been proposed for that purpose, statistical significance tests for non-standard measures (different from the classification error) are less often used in the literature. This paper is an attempt at empirically verifying how these tests compare with more classical tests, on various conditions. More precisely, using a very large dataset to estimate the w...

Nonparametric symmetry tests for statistical functionals

Dedicated to the 70th birthday of Johann Pfanzagl Summary. Along the lines of Pfanzagl's work the testing theory for the non-parametric null hypothesis of symmetry (including matched pairs) is developed. The testing problem is typically given by a skew symmetric statistical functional which seems to be adequate for the nonparametric world. Under mild regularity assumptions asymptotically maximi...
