چکیده
The Cramér-von Mises criterion is employed to compare whether the marginal distribution functions of a k-dimensional random variable are equal or not. The well-known Donsker invariance principle and the KarhunenLoéve expansion is used in order to derive its asymptotic distribution. Two different resampling plans (one based on permutations and the other one based on the general bootstrap algorithm, gBA) are also considered to approximate its distribution. The practical behaviour of the proposed test is studied from a Monte Carlo simulation study. The statistical power of the test based on the Cramér-von Mises criterion is competitive when the underlying distributions are different in location and is clearly better than the Friedman one when the sole difference among the involved distributions is the spread or the shape. Both resampling plans lead to similar results although the gBA avoids the usual required interchangeability assumption. Finally, the method is applied on the study of the evolution inequality incomes distribution between some European countries along the years 2000 and 2011.

Cramér-von Mises regression
Consider a linear regression model with unknown regression parameters 0 and independent errors of unknown distribution. Block the observations into q groups whose independent variables have a common value and measure the homogeneity of the blocks of residuals by a Cramér-von Mises q-sample statistic Tq( ). This statistic is designed so that its expected value as a function of the chosen regress...
متن کاملCombining Standardized Time Series Area and Cramér–von Mises Variance Estimators
We propose three related estimators for the variance parameter arising from a steady-state simulation process. All are based on combinations of standardized-time-series area and Cramér–von Mises (CvM) estimators. The first is a straightforward linear combination of the area and CvM estimators; the second resembles a Durbin–Watson statistic; and the third is related to a jackknifed version of th...
متن کاملAsymptotic local efficiency of Cramér--von Mises tests for multivariate independence
Deheuvels [J. Multivariate Anal. 11 (1981) 102–113] and Genest and Rémillard [Test 13 (2004) 335–369] have shown that powerful rank tests of multivariate independence can be based on combinations of asymptotically independent Cramér–von Mises statistics derived from a Möbius decomposition of the empirical copula process. A result on the large-sample behavior of this process under contiguous seq...

Comparing two random vectors by calculating a distance measure between the underlying probability density functions is a key ingredient in many applications, especially in the domain of image processing. For this purpose, the recently introduced generalized Cramér-von Mises distance is an interesting choice, since it is well defined even for the multivariate and discrete case. Unfortunately, th...
متن کاملParameter Estimation of Some Archimedean Copulas Based on Minimum Cramér-von-Mises Distance
The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new estimation method for estimating the Archimedean copula dependence parameter in the non-parametric setting. The estimation of the dependence parameter has been selected as the value that minimizes the Cramér-von-Mises distance which measures the distance between Empirical Bernstein Kendall distribution function and true Kendall distribution functi...
