A Goodness of Fit Approach to the Unknown Age (UBACT) Class of Life Distribution
نویسندگان
چکیده
Based on the goodness of fit approach, a new test is presented for testing exponentiality versus used better than aged in convex tail ordering UBACT class of life distribution. The percentiles of this test are tabulated for sample sizes n=1(5)100. It is shown that the proposed test is simple and it has high relative efficiency for some commonly used alternatives. A numerical example in medical science demonstrates practical application of the proposed test.

A New Goodness-of-Fit Test for a Distribution by the Empirical Characteristic Function
Extended Abstract. Suppose n i.i.d. observations, X1, …, Xn, are available from the unknown distribution F(.), goodness-of-fit tests refer to tests such as H0 : F(x) = F0(x) against H1 : F(x) $neq$ F0(x). Some nonparametric tests such as the Kolmogorov--Smirnov test, the Cramer-Von Mises test, the Anderson-Darling test and the Watson test have been suggested by comparing empirical ...

It is well-known that the skew-normal distribution can provide an alternative model to the normal distribution for analyzing asymmetric data. The aim of this paper is to propose two goodness-of-fit tests for assessing whether a sample comes from a multivariate skew-normal (MSN) distribution. We address the problem of multivariate skew-normality goodness-of-fit based on the empirical Laplace tra...
