Testing the Projectivity Hypothesis
نویسندگان
چکیده
The empirical validity of the projeetivity hypothesis for Bulgarian is tested. It is shown that the justification of the hypothesis presented for other languages suffers serious methodological deficiencies. Our automated testing, designed to evade such deficiencies~ yielded results falsifying the hypothesis for Bulgarian: the non-projective constructions studied were in fact grammatical rather than ungrammatical, as implied by the projeetivity thesis. Despite this, the projectivity/non-projectivity distinction itself has to be retained in Bulgarian syntax and, with some provisions, in the systems for automatic

LINEAR HYPOTHESIS TESTING USING DLR METRIC
Several practical problems of hypotheses testing can be under a general linear model analysis of variance which would be examined. In analysis of variance, when the response random variable Y , has linear relationship with several random variables X, another important model as analysis of covariance can be used. In this paper, assuming that Y is fuzzy and using DLR metric, a method for testing ...
متن کاملExact hypothesis testing and confidence interval for mean of the exponential distribution under Type-I progressive hybrid censoring
Censored samples are discussed in experiments of life-testing; i.e. whenever the experimenter does not observe the failure times of all units placed on a life test. In recent years, inference based on censored sampling is considered, so that about the parameters of various distributions such as normal, exponential, gamma, Rayleigh, Weibull, log normal, inverse Gaussian, ...
متن کاملHYPOTHESIS TESTING FOR AN EXCHANGEABLE NORMAL DISTRIBUTION
Consider an exchangeable normal vector with parameters ????2, and ?. On the basis of a vector observation some tests about these parameters are found and their properties are discussed. A simulation study for these tests and a few nonparametric tests are presented. Some advantages and disadvantages of these tests are discussed and a few applications are given.
متن کاملAcceptance sampling for attributes via hypothesis testing and the hypergeometric distribution
This paper questions some aspects of attribute acceptance sampling in light of the original concepts of hypothesis testing from Neyman and Pearson (NP). Attribute acceptance sampling in industry, as developed by Dodge and Romig (DR), generally follows the international standards of ISO 2859, and similarly the Brazilian standards NBR 5425 to NBR 5427 and the United States Standards ANSI/ASQC Z1....
متن کاملTesting for Stochastic Non- Linearity in the Rational Expectations Permanent Income Hypothesis
The Rational Expectations Permanent Income Hypothesis implies that consumption follows a martingale. However, most empirical tests have rejected the hypothesis. Those empirical tests are based on linear models. If the data generating process is non-linear, conventional tests may not assess some of the randomness properly. As a result, inference based on conventional tests of linear models can b...
