Gradient-Free Kernel Conditional Stein Discrepancy goodness of fit testing

open access: yesMachine Learning with Applications, 2023
In this study, we propose a gradient-free statistical goodness-of-fit test for determining if a joint sample (xi,yi)is drawn from p(y|x)πxfor some density πxgiven a conditional distribution.

Hawkes-driven stochastic volatility models: goodness-of-fit testing of alternative intensity specifications with S &P500 data

open access: yesAnnals of Operations Research, 2021
We introduce a novel stochastic volatility model with price and volatility co-jumps driven by Hawkes processes and develop a feasible maximum-likelihood procedure to estimate the parameters driving the jump intensity.

Tuning goodness-of-fit tests† [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
As modern precision cosmological measurements continue to show agreement with the broad features of the standard $ $-Cold Dark Matter ($ $CDM) cosmological model, we are increasingly motivated to look for small departures from the standard model's predictions which might not be detected with standard approaches.

Goodness‐of‐fit testing in high dimensional generalized linear models [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series B (Statistical Methodology), 2019
We propose a family of tests to assess the goodness of fit of a high dimensional generalized linear model. Our framework is flexible and may be used to construct an omnibus test or directed against testing specific non‐linearities and interaction effects,

Non-parametric hypothesis testing to model some cancers based on goodness of fit

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics, 2022
By observing the failure behavior of the recorded survival data, we aim to compare the different processing approaches or the effectiveness of the devices or systems applied in this non-parametric statistical test.

Testing EBU_mgf Class of Life Distributions based on Goodness of Fit approach [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Theory and Applications (JSTA), 2016
Based on the goodness of fit approach, a new test is presented for testing exponentiality against "exponential Better than Used in moment generating function ordering class" (EBUmgf). The critical values and the powers of this test are calculated.

Testing for goodness rather than lack of fit of continuous probability distributions.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The vast majority of testing procedures presented in the literature as goodness-of-fit tests fail to accomplish what the term is promising. Actually, a significant result of such a test indicates that the true distribution underlying the data differs ...

Score-Based Hypothesis Testing for Unnormalized Models

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Unnormalized statistical models play an important role in machine learning, statistics, and signal processing. In this paper, we derive a new hypothesis testing procedure for unnormalized models. Our approach is motivated by the success of score matching

Exploiting the information content of hydrological ''outliers'' for goodness-of-fit testing [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2010
Validation of probabilistic models based on goodness-of-fit tests is an essential step for the frequency analysis of extreme events. The outcome of standard testing techniques, however, is mainly determined by the behavior of the hypothetical model, < ...

Testing goodness-of-fit and conditional independence with approximate co-sufficient sampling [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Statistics, 2020
Goodness-of-fit (GoF) testing is ubiquitous in statistics, with direct ties to model selection, confidence interval construction, conditional independence testing, and multiple testing, just to name a few applications.
