A Saddlepoint Approximation to the Distribution Function of the Anderson-Darling Test Statistic
The Anderson-Darling goodness-of-fit test has a highly skewed and non-standard limit distribution. Various attempts have been made to tabulate the associated critical points, using both theoretical approximations and simulation methods. We show that a standard saddlepoint approximation performs well in both tails of the distribution. It is markedly superior to other theoretical approximations i...
متن کاملEfficient Estimation of the Density and Cumulative Distribution Function of the Generalized Rayleigh Distribution
The uniformly minimum variance unbiased (UMVU), maximum likelihood, percentile (PC), least squares (LS) and weighted least squares (WLS) estimators of the probability density function (pdf) and cumulative distribution function are derived for the generalized Rayleigh distribution. This model can be used quite effectively in modelling strength data and also modeling general lifetime data. It has...
متن کاملA comparison of the accuracy of saddlepoint conditional cumulative distribution function approximations
Consider a model parameterized by a scalar parameter of interest and a nuisance parameter vector. Inference about the parameter of interest may be based on the signed root of the likelihood ratio statistic R. The standard normal approximation to the conditional distribution of R typically has error of order O(n−1/2), where n is the sample size. There are several modifications for R, which reduc...
متن کاملA hybrid method to find cumulative distribution function of completion time of GERT networks
This paper proposes a hybrid method to find cumulative distribution function (CDF) of completion time of GERT-type networks (GTN) which have no loop and have only exclusive-or nodes. Proposed method is cre-ated by combining an analytical transformation with Gaussian quadrature formula. Also the combined crude Monte Carlo simulation and combined conditional Monte Carlo simulation are developed a...
متن کاملA logistic approximation to the cumulative normal distribution
This paper develops a logistic approximation to the cumulative normal distribution. Although the literature contains a vast collection of approximate functions for the normal distribution, they are very complicated, not very accurate, or valid for only a limited range. This paper proposes an enhanced approximate function. When comparing the proposed function to other approximations studied in t...
