An Updated Review of Goodness of Fit Tests Based on Entropy

Journal of the Iranian Statistical Society, 2020
. Di ff erent approaches to goodness of fit (GOF) testing are proposed. This survey intends to present the developments on Goodness of Fit based on entropy during the last 50 years, from the very first origins until the most recent advances for di ff erent ...

Tests of Goodness of Fit

Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1963
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 review of goodness of fit tests for Pareto distributions

Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 2019
Pareto distributions are the most popular models in economics and finance. Hence, it is essential to have a wide spectrum of tools for checking their goodness of fit to a given data set. This paper provides the first review of known goodness of fit tests

Goodness-of-Fit Tests via Entropy-Based Density Estimation Techniques

Stats
Goodness-of-fit testing remains a fundamental problem in statistical inference with broad practical importance. In this paper, we introduce two new goodness-of-fit tests grounded in entropy-based density estimation techniques.

Goodness-of-Fit Tests For Elliptical and Independent Copulas through Projection Pursuit

Algorithms, 2011
Two goodness-of-fit tests for copulas are being investigated. The first one deals with the case of elliptical copulas and the second one deals with independent copulas.

A Review of Some Goodness-of-Fit Tests for Logistic Regression Model

Asian Journal of Probability and Statistics
Some goodness-of-fit statistic (Likelihood ratio test, Pseudo (R2) test, Hosmer-lemeshow test and Chi-square test) were used to determine model fit in binary logistic regression, their estimates were compared to each other, to determine their ...

Adaptive goodness-of-fit tests in a density model

, 2006
Given an i.i.d. sample drawn from a density $f$, we propose to test that $f$ equals some prescribed density $f_0$ or that $f$ belongs to some translation/scale family. We introduce a multiple testing procedure based on an estimation of the $\mathbb{L}_2$-

Nonparametric checks for single-index models [PDF]

, 2005
In this paper we study goodness-of-fit testing of single-index models. The large sample behavior of certain score-type test statistics is investigated. As a by-product, we obtain asymptotically distribution-free maximin tests for a large class of local ...

Statistical distribution models : goodness of fit tests [PDF]

, 2015
The purpose of a one-sample test of fit is to give an objective measure of how well a probability model agrees with observed data. Here we discuss the test of Karl Pearson and derivatives of it, tests based on the empirical distribution function and the ...
