Characterizations and Goodness of Fit Tests
Summary In this article a systematic approach to providing goodness of fit tests is discussed, for the composite goodness of fit problem of testing that the distribution F of a random sample comes from a parametric family F o. Characterization procedures are emphasized, and it is shown that, at least for the exponential case, invariant ...

The sensitivity of chi-squared goodness-of-fit tests to the partitioning of data [PDF]
In this paper we conduct a Monte Carlo study to determine the power of Pearson’s overall goodness-of-fit test as well as the “Pearson analog” tests (see Anderson (1994)) to detect rejections due to shifts in variance, skewness and kurtosis, as we vary

Goodness of Fit Tests and Power Comparisons for Weighted Gamma Distribution
In this paper, a weighted version of Gamma distribution known as Weighted Gamma (WG) distribution has been considered. Various tests of goodness of fit viz Kolmogorov–Smirnov, Cram´er–von Mises and Anderson–Darling have been applied to this family ...

Dry months in the agricultural region of Ribeirão Preto, state of São Paulo-Brazil: an study based on the extreme value theory [PDF]
The application of the Extreme Value Theory (EVT) to model the probability of occurrence of extreme low Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) values leads to an increase of the knowledge related to the occurrence of extreme dry months.

Statistical Power of Goodness-of-Fit Tests for Type~I Left-Censored Data
Type I doubly left-censored data often arise in environmental studies. In this paper, the power of the most frequently used goodness-of-fit tests (Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Cramér-von Mises, Anderson-Darling) is studied considering various sample sizes and ...

SUMMARY An explicit account is given of a procedure for assessing goodness of fit of some observations with a hypothesis, generally known as a “test of significance”; the description is close in spirit to R. A. Fisher’s original conception. The relation of this test procedure with Bayesian procedures and with the Neyman–Pearson theory of

A Novel Goodness-of-Fit Test for Cauchy Distribution
Recently, several goodness-of-fit tests for Cauchy distribution have been introduced based on Kullback–Leibler divergence and likelihood ratio. It is claimed that these tests are more powerful than the well-known goodness-of-fit tests such as Kolmogorov ...
