چکیده

In this paper, we propose a test of fit based on maximum entropy. The asymptotic distribution of the proposed test statistic is established and a corrected form for small and medium sample sizes is furnished. The performance of the test is investigated through extensive Monte Carlo simulations. Real examples are also presented and analyzed.

Entropy of Hybrid Censoring Schemes

A hybrid censoring scheme is a mixture of type I and type II censoring schemes. When $n$ items are placed on a life test, the experiment terminates under type I or type II hybrid censoring scheme if either a pre-fixed censoring time T or the rth (1<=r<=n&nbsp;is fixed) failure is first or later observed, respectively. In this paper, we investigate the decomposition of entropy in both hybrid cen...

A Goodness of Fit Test For Exponentiality Based on Lin-Wong Information

In this paper, we introduce a goodness of fit test for expo- nentiality based on Lin-Wong divergence measure. In order to estimate the divergence, we use a method similar to Vasicek’s method for estimat- ing the Shannon entropy. The critical values and the powers of the test are computed by Monte Carlo simulation. It is shown that the proposed test are competitive with other tests of exponentia...

An Updated Review of Goodness of Fit Tests Based on Entropy

Different approaches to goodness of fit (GOF) testing are proposed. This survey intends to present the developments on Goodness of Fit based on entropy during the last 50 years, from the very first origins until the most recent advances for different data and models. Goodness of fit tests based on Shannon entropy was started by Vasicek in 1976 and were continued by many authors. In this paper, ...

On Entropy Test for Conditionally Heteroscedastic Location-Scale Time Series Models

This study considers the goodness of fit test for a class of conditionally heteroscedastic location-scale time series models. For this task, we develop an entropy-type goodness of fit test based on residuals. To examine the asymptotic behavior of the test, we first investigate the asymptotic property of the residual empirical process and then derive the limiting null distribution of the entropy...

Assessment of Artificial Neural Network Models and Maximum Entropy in Zoning of Gully Erosion Sensitivity of Golestan Dam Basin

Zoning of gully erosion susceptibility and determining the factors controlling gully erosion is very important and vital. The aim of this study was to investigate the spatial distribution of gully erosion using two models of ANN and MaxEnt and to determine the factors affecting this type of erosion in Golestan Dam basin. Therefore, 14 factors in the form of three divisions, including topographi...
