In this paper, we introduce a Goodness-of-Fit test for the Multivariate Exponential Power (MEP) distribution, a multivariate extension of the Generalized Gaussian, which has recently gained considerable interest as a model for wavelet coefficients in the context of color image retrieval and spread-spectrum watermarking. We present a size and power study of this test and show Goodness-of-Fit res...

For any generalized linear model, the Pearson goodness of fit statistic is the score test statistic for testing the current model against the saturated model. The relationship between the Pearson statistic and the residual deviance is therefore the relationship between the score test and the likelihood ratio test statistics, and this clarifies the role of the Pearson statistic in generalized li...

We study a bijective map from integer partitions to the prime factorizations of integers that we call “supernorm” partition, in which multiplicities parts are mapped factors natural numbers. The supernorm is connected family maps define, suggests potential apply techniques partition theory identify and prove multiplicative properties integers. As an application “supernormal” mappings (i.e., per...
