Tests of fit using spacings statistics with estimated parameters
Let X,, , X, be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables with an unknown underlying continuous cumulative distribution function F. Relative to this unknown distribution function suppose one would like to test a null hypothesis concerning the goodness of fit of F to some distribution function using symmetric functions of sample spacings. In some applications the nul...
متن کاملA comparison of alternative approaches to sup-norm goodness of fit tests with estimated parameters
Goodness of fit tests based on sup-norm statistics of empirical processes have nonstandard limiting distributions when the null hypothesis is composite — that is, when parameters of the null model are estimated. Several solutions to this problem have been suggested, including the calculation of adjusted critical values for these nonstandard distributions and the transformation of the empirical ...
متن کاملEMPIRICAL CHARACTERISTIC FUNCTION APPROACH TO GOODNESS-OF-FIT TESTS FOR THE CAUCHY DISTRIBUTION WITH PARAMETERS ESTIMATED BY MLE OR ElSE
We consider goodness-of-fit tests of the Cauchy distribution based on weighted integrals of the squared distance between the empirical characteristic function of the standardized data and the characteristic function of the standard Cauchy distribution. For standardization of data Ciirtler and Henze (2000, Annals of the Institute of Statistical Mathematics, 52, 267-286) used the median and the i...
متن کاملEmpirical Characteristic Function Approach to Goodness-of-Fit Tests for the Cauchy Distribution with Parameters Estimated by MLE or EISE
We consider goodness-of-fit tests of Cauchy distribution based on weighted integrals of the squared distance of the difference between the empirical characteristic function of the standardized data and the characteristic function of the standard Cauchy distribution. For standardization of data Gürtler and Henze (2000) used the median and the interquartile range. In this paper we use maximum lik...
متن کاملU-Statistics Based on Spacings
In this paper, we investigate the asymptotic theory for U -statistics based on sample spacings, i.e. the gaps between successive observations. The usual asymptotic theory for U -statistics does not apply here because spacings are dependent variables. However, under the null hypothesis, the uniform spacings can be expressed as conditionally independent Exponential random variables. We exploit th...
