A T-distribution Plot to Detect Non-multinormality

نویسنده

چکیده

Based on the univariate t-statistic from an invariant representation of multi-variate data, we propose a new quantile-quantile (Q-Q) plot to detect non-multinormality in high-dimensional data analysis. Acceptance regions for the Q-Q plot are provided by the theory of quantile processes. Using the acceptance regions, we perform a Monte Carlo study on the power of the Q-Q plot. It turns out that the new Q-Q plot is convenient and eeective for routine use. It could be recommended for use together with other graphical methods and numerical methods for testing multinormality.

A Non-parametric Control Chart for Controlling Variability Based on Squared Rank Test

Control charts are used to identify the presence of assignable cause of variation in the process. Non-parametric control chart is an emerging area of recent development in the theory of SPC. Its main advantage is that it does not require any knowledge about the underlying distribution of the variable. In this paper a non-parametric control chart for controlling variability has been developed. I...

An Intelligent Method Based on WNN for Estimating Voltage Harmonic Waveforms of Non-monitored Sensitive Loads in Distribution Network

An intelligent method based on wavelet neural network (WNN) is presented in this study to estimate voltage harmonic distortion waveforms at a non-monitored sensitive load. Voltage harmonics are considered as the main type of waveform distortion in the power quality approach. To detect and analyze voltage harmonics, it is not economical to install power quality monitors (PQMs) at all buses. The ...
