Test for Independence of the Variables with Missing Elements in One and the Same Column of the Empirical Correlation Matrix

Veleva, Evelina (2008)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 62H15, 62H12.We consider variables with joint multivariate normal distribution and suppose that the sample correlation matrix has missing elements, located in one and the same column. Under these assumptions we derive the maximum likelihood ratio test for independence of the variables. We obtain also the maximum likelihood estimations for the missing values.

Test of linear hypothesis in multivariate models

Lubomír Kubáček (2007)

Kybernetika

In regular multivariate regression model a test of linear hypothesis is dependent on a structure and a knowledge of the covariance matrix. Several tests procedures are given for the cases that the covariance matrix is either totally unknown, or partially unknown (variance components), or totally known.

Testing hypotheses in universal models

Eva Fišerová (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

A linear regression model, when a design matrix has not full column rank and a covariance matrix is singular, is considered. The problem of testing hypotheses on mean value parameters is studied. Conditions when a hypothesis can be tested or when need not be tested are given. Explicit forms of test statistics based on residual sums of squares are presented.

Tests de la razón de verosimilitud para medias de poblaciones normales, sujetas a restricciones.

José Antonio Menéndez Fernández (1984)

Trabajos de Estadística e Investigación Operativa

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 profile analysis based on two-step monotone missing data

Mizuki Onozawa, Sho Takahashi, Takashi Seo (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

In this paper, we consider profile analysis for the observations with two-step monotone missing data. There exist three interesting hypotheses - the parallelism hypothesis, level hypothesis, and flatness hypothesis - when comparing the profiles of some groups. The T²-type statistics and their asymptotic null distributions for the three hypotheses are given for two-sample profile analysis. We propose the approximate upper percentiles of these test statistics. When the data do not have missing observations,...

Tests in weakly nonlinear regression model

Lubomír Kubáček, Eva Tesaříková (2005)

Acta Universitatis Palackianae Olomucensis. Facultas Rerum Naturalium. Mathematica

In weakly nonlinear regression model a weakly nonlinear hypothesis can be tested by linear methods if an information on actual values of model parameters is at our disposal and some condition is satisfied. In other words we must know that unknown parameters are with sufficiently high probability in so called linearization region. The aim of the paper is to determine this region.

Tests of independence of normal random variables with known and unknown variance ratio

Edward Gąsiorek, Andrzej Michalski, Roman Zmyślony (2000)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

In the paper, a new approach to construction test for independenceof two-dimensional normally distributed random vectors is given under the assumption that the ratio of the variances is known. This test is uniformly better than the t-Student test. A comparison of the power of these two tests is given. A behaviour of this test forsome ε-contamination of the original model is also shown. In the general case when the variance ratio is unknown, an adaptive test is presented. The equivalence between...

Tests of some hypotheses on characteristic roots of covariance matrices not requiring normality assumptions

František Rublík (2001)

Kybernetika

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...

Text document classification based on mixture models

Jana Novovičová, Antonín Malík (2004)

Kybernetika

Finite mixture modelling of class-conditional distributions is a standard method in a statistical pattern recognition. This paper, using bag-of-words vector document representation, explores the use of the mixture of multinomial distributions as a model for class-conditional distribution for multiclass text document classification task. Experimental comparison of the proposed model and the standard Bernoulli and multinomial models as well as the model based on mixture of multivariate Bernoulli distributions...

The analysis of symmetry and asymmetry : orthogonality of decomposition of symmetry into quasi-symmetry and marginal symmetry for multi-way tables

Sadao Tomizawa, Kouji Tahata (2007)

Journal de la société française de statistique

For the analysis of square contingency tables, Caussinus (1965) proposed the quasi-symmetry model and gave the theorem that the symmetry model holds if and only if both the quasi-symmetry and the marginal homogeneity models hold. Bishop, Fienberg and Holland (1975, p.307) pointed out that the similar theorem holds for three-way tables. Bhapkar and Darroch (1990) gave the similar theorem for general multi-way tables. The purpose of this paper is (1) to review some topics on various symmetry models,...

The Bhattacharyya metric as an absolute similarity measure for frequency coded data

Frank J. Aherne, Neil A. Thacker, Peter I Rockett (1998)

Kybernetika

This paper highlights advantageous properties of the Bhattacharyya metric over the chi-squared statistic for comparing frequency distributed data. The original interpretation of the Bhattacharyya metric as a geometric similarity measure is reviewed and it is pointed out that this derivation is independent of the use of the Bhattacharyya measure as an upper bound on the probability of misclassification in a two-class problem. The affinity between the Bhattacharyya and Matusita measures is described...
