Symmetries of random discrete copulas
In this paper we analyze some properties of the discrete copulas in terms of permutations. We observe the connection between discrete copulas and the empirical copulas, and then we analyze a statistic that indicates when the discrete copula is symmetric and obtain its main statistical properties under independence. The results obtained are useful in designing a nonparametric test for symmetry of copulas.
Tail approximations for samples from a finite population with applications to permutation tests
This paper derives an explicit approximation for the tail probability of a sum of sample values taken without replacement from an unrestricted finite population. The approximation is shown to hold under no conditions in a wide range with relative error given in terms of the standardized absolute third moment of the population, β3N. This approximation is used to obtain a result comparable to the well-known Cramér large deviation result in the independent case, but with no restrictions on the sampled...

Tail orderings and the total time on test transform

Testing a homogeneity of stochastic processes
The paper concentrates on modeling the data that can be described by a homogeneous or non-homogeneous Poisson process. The goal is to decide whether the intensity of the process is constant or not. In technical practice, e.g., it means to decide whether the reliability of the system remains the same or if it is improving or deteriorating. We assume two situations. First, when only the counts of events are known and, second, when the times between the events are available. Several statistical tests...
Testing a sub-hypothesis in linear regression models with long memory covariates and errors
This paper considers the problem of testing a sub-hypothesis in homoscedastic linear regression models when the covariate and error processes form independent long memory moving averages. The asymptotic null distribution of the likelihood ratio type test based on Whittle quadratic forms is shown to be a chi-square distribution. Additionally, the estimators of the slope parameters obtained by minimizing the Whittle dispersion is seen to be -consistent for all values of the long memory parameters...
Testing a tolerance hypothesis by means of an information distance
In the paper a test of the hypothesis , on parameters of the normal distribution is presented, and explicit formulas for critical regions are derived for finite sample sizes. Asymptotic null distribution of the test statistic is investigated under the assumption, that the true distribution possesses the fourth moment.
Testing in locally conic models, and application to mixture models
Testing in locally conic models, and application to mixture models
In this paper, we address the problem of testing hypotheses using maximum likelihood statistics in non identifiable models. We derive the asymptotic distribution under very general assumptions. The key idea is a local reparameterization, depending on the underlying distribution, which is called locally conic. This method enlights how the general model induces the structure of the limiting distribution in terms of dimensionality of some derivative space. We present various applications of...
Tests de la razón de verosimilitud para medias de poblaciones normales, sujetas a restricciones.
This paper shows the statistics that define the likelihood ratio tests about the mean of a k-dimensional normal population, when the hypotheses to test are H0: θ = 0; H0*: θ ∈ τφ; H1: θ ∈ τ; H2: θ ∈ Rk, being τ a closed and poliedric convex cone in Rk, and τφ the minima dimension face in τ.It is proved that the obtained statistics distributions are certain combinations of chi-squared distributions, when θ = 0.At last, it is proved that the power functions of the tests satisfy some desirable properties....
Tests for the presence of trends in linear processes [Book]
Tests of some hypotheses on characteristic roots of covariance matrices not requiring normality assumptions
Test statistics for testing some hypotheses on characteristic roots of covariance matrices are presented, their asymptotic distribution is derived and a confidence interval for the proportional sum of the characteristic roots is constructed. The resulting procedures are robust against violation of the normality assumptions in the sense that they asymptotically possess chosen significance level provided that the population characteristic roots are distinct and the covariance matrices of certain quadratic...
