Multivariate skewness and kurtosis for singular distributions.

Ramón Ardanuy, José Manuel Sánchez (1993)

Extracta Mathematicae

Similarity:

In multivariate analysis it is generally assumed that the observations are normally distributed. It was Mardia ([1] to [5]), who first introduced measures of multivariate skewness and kurtosis; these statistics are affine invariant and can be used for testing multivariate normality. Skewness and kurtosis tests remain among the most powerful, general and easy to implement. In this paper we show some properties of these statistics when population distribution is singular.

On Dwass' method for deriving the distribution of rank order statistics

B. R. Handa, Sri Gopal Mohanty (1979)

Aplikace matematiky

Similarity:

This note presents a critical examination of Dwass' method for obtaining the distribution of rank order statistics defined on random samples obtained from the same continuous population. New situations are discussed for the usefulness of the method.
