On Hodges-Lehmann optimality of LR tests
نویسنده
چکیده
It is shown that the likelihood ratio test statistics are Hodges-Lehmann optimal for testing the null hypothesis against the whole parameter space, provided that certain regularity conditions are fulfilled. These conditions are verified for the non-singular normal, multinomial and Poisson distribution. Let {F 7 ; 7 € S } be a family of probability measures, defined on (X, T) by means of the densities {f(x, 7); 7 G E } with respect to a measure v. If we denote the g-fold products defined on the cr-algebra S, describes independent sampling from the q populations Throughout the paper we shall assume that Mfloce. In describing asymptotic properties of tests of the null hypothesis we shall use the notation V = < p€R q ; ^2PJ = 1 and Pj > 0 for all j \ (4)

Chernoff-Savage and Hodges-Lehmann results for Wilks' test
Abstract: We extend to rank-based tests of multivariate independence the Chernoff-Savage and Hodges-Lehmann classical univariate results. More precisely, we show that the Taskinen, Kankainen and Oja (2004) normal-score rank test for multivariate independence uniformly dominates – in the Pitman sense – the classical Wilks (1935) test, which establishes the Pitman non-admissibility of the latter,...
متن کاملRank-based Optimal Tests of the Adequacy of an Elliptic Varma Model
We are deriving optimal rank-based tests for the adequacy of a vector autoregressive-moving average (VARMA) model with elliptically contoured innovation density. These tests are based on the ranks of pseudo-Mahalanobis distances and on normed residuals computed from Tyler’s [Ann. Statist. 15 (1987) 234–251] scatter matrix; they generalize the univariate signed rank procedures proposed by Hallin...

متن کاملHodges-Lehmann scale estimator for Cauchy distribution
We draw here on the relation between the Cauchy and hyperbolic secant distributions to prove that the MLE of the scale parameter of Cauchy distribution is log-normally distributed and to study the properties of a Hodges-Lehmann type estimator for the scale parameter. This scale estimator is slightly biased but performs well even on small samples regardless of the location parameter. The asympto...
متن کاملOn robust and efficient estimation of the center of symmetry
In this paper, a class of estimators of the center of symmetry based on the empirical characteristic function is examined. In the spirit of the Hodges-Lehmann estimator, the resulting procedures are shown to be a function of the pairwise averages. The proposed procedures are also shown to have an equivalent representation as the minimizers of certain distances between two corresponding kernel d...
