Different approaches to goodness of fit (GOF) testing are proposed. This survey intends to present the developments on Goodness of Fit based on entropy during the last 50 years, from the very first origins until the most recent advances for different data and models. Goodness of fit tests based on Shannon entropy was started by Vasicek in 1976 and were continued by many authors. In this paper, ...

description of lactation curve were investigated using sine function, compare it with two functions (dijekstra and wood). the data contained 32233 dairy milk yield records from 93 first parity iranian holstein cows that had calving between aug. 2008 and jul. 2009. actual milk production per day and subsequently the actual production of each animal were available in the first lactation. lactatio...

It is well-known that the skew-normal distribution can provide an alternative model to the normal distribution for analyzing asymmetric data. The aim of this paper is to propose two goodness-of-fit tests for assessing whether a sample comes from a multivariate skew-normal (MSN) distribution. We address the problem of multivariate skew-normality goodness-of-fit based on the empirical Laplace tra...
