Inferences on the Generalized Variance under Normality

Authors

Abstract:

Generalized variance is applied for determination of dispersion in a multivariate population and is a successful measure for concentration of multivariate data. In this article, we consider constructing confidence interval and testing the hypotheses about generalized variance in a multivariate normal distribution and give a computational approach. Simulation studies are performed to compare this approach and three approximate methods the simulations show that our approach is satisfactory. At the end, two practical examples are given.

Inferences for Extended Generalized Exponential Distribution based on Order Statistics

‎Recently‎, ‎a new distribution‎, ‎named as extended generalized exponential distribution‎, ‎has been introduced by Kundu and Gupta (2011). ‎In this paper‎, ‎we consider the extended generalized exponential distribution with known shape parameters α and β. ‎At first‎, ‎the exact expressions for marginal and product moments of o...

Inferences on a Normal Covariance Matrix and Generalized Variance with Monotone Missing Date

The problems of testing a normal covariance matrix and an interval estimation of generalized variance when the data are missing from subsets of components are considered. The likelihood ratio test statistic for testing the covariance matrix is equal to a specified matrix, and its asymptotic null distribution is derived when the data matrix is of a monotone pattern. The validity of the asymptoti...

Generalized Descents and Normality

We use Janson’s dependency criterion to prove that the distribution of d-descents of permutations of length n converge to a normal distribution as n goes to infinity. We show that this remains true even if d is allowed to grow with n.

Asymptotic normality of the deconvolution kernel density estimator under the vanishing error variance

Let X1, . . . , Xn be i.i.d. observations, whereXi = Yi+σnZi and the Y ’s and Z’s are independent. Assume that the Y ’s are unobservable and that they have the density f and also that the Z’s have a known density k. Furthermore, let σn depend on n and let σn → 0 as n → ∞. We consider the deconvolution problem, i.e. the problem of estimation of the density f based on the sample X1, . . . , Xn. A...

two-phase sample size estimation with pre-assigned variance under normality assumption

we develop a two phase sampling procedure to determine the sample size necessary to estimatethe population mean of a normally distributed random variable and show that the resulting estimator has preassigned variance and is unbiased under a regular condition. we present a necessary and sufficient condition under which the final sample mean is an unbiased estimator for the population mean.
