Testing on the first-order autoregressive model with contaminated exponential white noise finite sample case

Hocine Fellag (2001)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

The testing problem on the first-order autoregressive parameter in finite sample case is considered. The innovations are distributed according to the exponential distribution. The aim of this paper is to study how much the size of this test changes when, at some time k, an innovation outlier contaminant occurs. We show that the test is rather sensitive to these changes.

Tail orderings and the total time on test transform

Jarosław Bartoszewicz (1996)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The paper presents some connections between two tail orderings of distributions and the total time on test transform. The procedure for testing the pure-tail ordering is proposed.

Characterizations of the exponential distribution based on certain properties of its characteristic function

Simos G. Meintanis, George Iliopoulos (2003)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Two characterizations of the exponential distribution among distributions with support the nonnegative real axis are presented. The characterizations are based on certain properties of the characteristic function of the exponential random variable. Counterexamples concerning more general possible versions of the characterizations are given.

A class of tests for exponentiality based on a continuum of moment conditions

Simos G. Meintanis (2009)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

The empirical moment process is utilized to construct a family of tests for the null hypothesis that a random variable is exponentially distributed. The tests are consistent against the 'new better than used in expectation' (NBUE) class of alternatives. Consistency is shown and the limit null distribution of the test statistic is derived, while efficiency results are also provided. The finite-sample properties of the proposed procedure in comparison to more standard procedures are investigated...

On the outstanding elements and record values in the exponential and gamma populations.

G. S. Lingappaiah (1981)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

Similarity:

Outstanding elements and recorded values are discussed in this paper as related to exponential and gamma populations. First, the problem of prediction is considered when there are available, k sets of independent observations from a general-type exponential distribution. In such a case, prediction of the n-th record value in the k-th set is made in terms of n-th (i = 1, ..., k-1) record values from other (k-1) sets. For this purpose a predictive distribution is obtained. Secondly, the...
