On the asymptotic efficiency of the multisample location-scale rank tests and their adjustment for ties

František Rublík (2007)

Kybernetika

Explicit formulas for the non-centrality parameters of the limiting chi-square distribution of proposed multisample rank based test statistics, aimed at testing the hypothesis of the simultaneous equality of location and scale parameters of underlying populations, are obtained by means of a general assertion concerning the location-scale test statistics. The finite sample behaviour of the proposed tests is discussed and illustrated by simulation estimates of the rejection probabilities. A modification...

On the asymptotic properties of rank statistics for the two-sample location and scale problem

Mohamed N. Goria, Dana Vorlíčková (1985)

Aplikace matematiky

The equivalence of the symmetry of density of the distribution of observations and the oddness and evenness of the score-generating functions for the location and the scale problem, respectively, is established at first. Then, it is shown that the linear rank statistics with scores generated by these functions are asymptotically independent under the hypothesis of randomness as well as under contiguous alternatives in the last part of the paper. The linear and quadratic forms of these statistics...

On the compound Poisson-gamma distribution

Christopher Withers, Saralees Nadarajah (2011)

Kybernetika

The compound Poisson-gamma variable is the sum of a random sample from a gamma distribution with sample size an independent Poisson random variable. It has received wide ranging applications. In this note, we give an account of its mathematical properties including estimation procedures by the methods of moments and maximum likelihood. Most of the properties given are hitherto unknown.
