Factor analysis and information criteria.
Michele Costa (1996)
Qüestiió
Similarity:
In this paper the research of the true number of latent factors in exploratoty factor analysis model is studied through a comparison between the log likelihood ratio test statistics, the information criteria of Akaike, Schwarz and Hannah-Quinn and a procedure of cross-validation. In a simulation study the a priori knowledge of the exact factor structure is used to evaluate the goodness of the different methods.
A comparison of parametric models for mortality graduation. Application to mortality data for the Valencia Region (Spain).
Ana Debón, Francisco Montes, Ramón Sala (2005)
SORT
Similarity:
The parametric graduation of mortality data has as its objective the satisfactory estimation of the death rates based on mortality data but using an age-dependent function whose parameters are adjusted from the crude rates obtainable directly from the data. This paper proposes a revision of the most commonly used parametric models and compares the result obtained with each of them when they are applied to the mortality data for the Valencia Region. As a result of the comparison, we conclude...

Concepts of relative importance.
William Kruskal (1984)
Qüestiió
Similarity:
How might one interpret the relative importance of independent variables, causes or determiners when a dependent variable depends on those determiners together with chance? Such questions arise throughout science, technology, and national life. The paper attemps to clarify and critically describe a number of approaches to the problem of understanding relative importance.
Statistical procedures for spatial point pattern recognition.
Jorge Mateu (2002)
Qüestiió
Similarity:
Spatial structures in the form of point patterns arise in many different contexts, and in most of them the key goal concerns the detection and recognition of the underlying spatial pattern. Particularly interesting is the case of pattern analysis with replicated data in two or more experimental groups. This paper compares design-based and model-based approaches to the analysis of this kind of spatial data. Basic questions about pattern detection concern estimating the properties of the...
A simple statistic to test generalized palindromic symmetry model in a 4x4 contingency table.
Sadao Tomizawa (1993)
Qüestiió
Similarity:
For a 4x4 contingency table, this note gives a simple statistic to test the goodness-of-fit of the generalized palindromic symmetry (GPS) model considered by McCullagh (1978). Also an asymptotic confidence interval for a parameter of interest in the GPS model is given. Two sets of unaided vision data are used as example.
Detecting atypical data in air pollution studies by using shorth intervals for regression

Similarity:
To validate pollution data, subject-matter experts in Airpl (an organization that maintains a network of air pollution monitoring stations in western France) daily perform visual examinations of the data and check their consistency. In this paper, we describe these visual examinations and propose a formalization for this problem. The examinations consist in comparisons of so-called shorth intervals so we build a statistical test that compares such intervals in a nonparametric regression...
