In this paper a Chernoff type theorem for the L1 distance between kernel estimators from two independent and identically distributed random samples is developed. The harmonic mean is used to correct the distance for inequal sample sizes case.

ABSTRACT This study investigates the effects of male and female empowerment, as well as gender empowerment inequality, on the adoption of climate‐smart agriculture (CSA) practices. Using a conditional mixed process model, we analyse survey data from 743 households across Henan, Shandong and Hebei provinces in China.

Bahadur Efficiency of EDF Based Normality Tests when Parameters are Estimated
In this paper some well-known tests based on empirical distribution functions (EDF) with estimated parameters for testing composite normality hypothesis are revisited, and some new results on asymptotic properties are provided. In particular, the approximate Bahadur slopes are obtained -- in the case of close alternatives -- for the EDF-based tests as ...

Penalized Convex Estimation in Dynamic Location Models
ABSTRACT This paper studies L1$$ {L}^1 $$‐penalized estimation for location models yt=mt+ϵt$$ {y}_t={m}_t+{\epsilon}_t $$, where mt$$ {m}_t $$ is defined by a possibly non‐Markovian recursion and ϵt$$ {\epsilon}_t $$ is a martingale difference sequence with possibly time‐varying conditional variance.

On Bahadur Efficiency of Power Divergence Statistics
It is proved that the information divergence statistic is infinitely more Bahadur efficient than the power divergence statistics of the orders $α>1$ as long as the sequence of alternatives is contiguous with respect to the sequence of null-hypotheses and the the number of observations per bin increases to infinity is not very slow. This improves the

Abstract Water scarcity represents a major constraint to crop productivity, increasing interest in sustainable strategies such as plant growth‐promoting microorganisms (PGPM). This study investigated the effects of a commercial PGPM consortium, composed of four Bacillus spp.

Abstract Biostimulants promote plant growth, nutrient uptake, and drought tolerance, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers. Intercropping, involving multiple crop species on the same land, is a promising practice. In Denmark, pea (Pisum sativum)–barley (Hordeum vulgare) intercrop (PBIC) is commonly used for grain and fodder production.

Bahadur Efficiencies of Some Tests for Uniformity on the Circle
In this paper we compare the asymptotic efficiencies of several tests that are available for testing uniformity on the circle. Since the problem of testing goodness of fit on the circle can be reduced to testing uniformity by a simple probability transformation, these comparisons are applicable also to the goodness of fit situation. The alternatives to

A total of 96 dried fish samples of Harpadon nehereus and Trichiurus lepturus were analyzed by GC‐ECD to determine residues of 4,4′‐DDE, 4,4′‐DDD, and 4,4′‐DDT. The validated method showed satisfactory analytical sensitivity, with LODs of 0.30–0.39 μg/kg and LOQs of 0.92–1.18 μg/kg.
