Sparse Serial Tests of Uniformity for Random Number Generators
Different versions of the serial test for testing the uniformity and independence of vectors of successive values produced by a (pseudo)random number generator are studied. These tests partition the t-dimensional unit hypercube into k cubic cells of equal volume, generate n points (vectors) in this hypercube, count how many points fall in each cell, and compute a test statistic defined as the s...

متن کاملRandom Number Generators: Metrics and Tests for Uniformity and Randomness
Random number generators are a small part of any computer simulation project. Yet they are the heart and the engine that drives the project. Often times software houses fail to understand the complexity involved in building a random number generator that will satisfy the project requirements and will be able to produce realistic results. Building a random number generator with a desirable perio...
متن کاملRandom walk tests for pseudo-random number generators
It is well known that there are no perfectly good generators of random number sequences, implying the need of testing the randomness of the sequences produced by such generators. There are many tests for measuring the uniformity of random sequences, and here we propose a few new ones, designed by random walks. The experiments we have made show that our tests discover some discrepancies of rando...
متن کاملRandom Number Generators and Empirical Tests
We recall some requirements for \good" random number generators and argue that while the construction of generators and the choice of their parameters must be based on theory, a posteriori empirical testing is also important. We then give examples of tests failed by some popular generators and examples of generators passing these tests.
