On two families of tests for normality with empirical description of their performances

Dominik Szynal, Waldemar Wołyński (2014)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We discuss two families of tests for normality based on characterizations of continuous distributions via order statistics and record values. Simulations of their powers show that they are competitive to widely recommended tests in the literature.

Moments of order statistics of the Generalized T Distribution

Ali İ. Genç (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We derive an explicit expression for the single moments of order statistics from the generalized t (GT) distribution. We also derive an expression for the product moment of any two order statistics from the same distribution. Then the location-scale estimating problem of a real data set is solved alternatively by the best linear unbiased estimates which are based on the moments of order statistics.

Exact distribution for the generalized F tests

Miguel Fonseca, Joao Tiago Mexia, Roman Zmyślony (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

Generalized F statistics are the quotients of convex combinations of central chi-squares divided by their degrees of freedom. Exact expressions are obtained for the distribution of these statistics when the degrees of freedom either in the numerator or in the denominator are even. An example is given to show how these expressions may be used to check the accuracy of Monte-Carlo methods in tabling these distributions. Moreover, when carrying out adaptative tests, these expressions enable...

Bootstrap method for central and intermediate order statistics under power normalization

Haroon Mohamed Barakat, E. M. Nigm, O. M. Khaled (2015)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

It has been known for a long time that for bootstrapping the distribution of the extremes under the traditional linear normalization of a sample consistently, the bootstrap sample size needs to be of smaller order than the original sample size. In this paper, we show that the same is true if we use the bootstrap for estimating a central, or an intermediate quantile under power normalization. A simulation study illustrates and corroborates theoretical results.
