Monkeying with the Goodness-of-Fit Test
The familiar Σ(OBS - EXP) 2/EXP goodness-of-fit measure is commonly used to test whether an observed sequence came from the realization of n independent identically distributed (iid) discrete random variables.

KSD Aggregated Goodness-Of-Fit Test
We investigate properties of goodness-of-fit tests based on the Kernel Stein Discrepancy (KSD). We introduce a strategy to construct a test, called KSDAgg, which aggregates multiple tests with different kernels. KSDAgg avoids splitting the data to perform kernel selection (which leads to a loss in test power), and rather maximises the test power over a

Correlation Goodness-of-Fit Test of Mixture of Two Weibull Distributions [PDF]
In this paper, we use the moment of order statistics for testing mixture of two Weibull distrimutions (MTWD) by using correlation-type goodness-of fit test.

Composite Goodness-of-fit Tests with Kernels
Model misspecification can create significant challenges for the implementation of probabilistic models, and this has led to development of a range of robust methods which directly account for this issue. However, whether these more involved methods are required will depend on whether the model is really misspecified, and there is a lack of generally ...

A Correlation Type Goodness of Fit Test for the Burr Distribution [PDF]
The Burr family of distributions is widely used in life testing studies. The two common survival or failure-time distributions, the Weibull and the Exponential, are both special cases or limiting cases of the Burr type XII (see Lewis (1981), denoted by ...

An Exhaustive Power Comparison of Normality Tests
A goodness-of-fit test is a frequently used modern statistics tool. However, it is still unclear what the most reliable approach is to check assumptions about data set normality. A particular data set (especially with a small number of observations) only

A Simple Goodness-of-Fit Test for Continuous Conditional Distributions
This paper presents a pragmatic specification test for conditional continuous distributions with uncensored data. We employ Monte Carlo (MC) experiments and the 2011 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey data to examine coverage and power to discern ...

Correlation Coefficient as Goodness-of-Fit Test for the Logistic Distribution [PDF]
Goodness-of-fit tests are used to determine if the data at hand satisfy the distributional assumptions of the statistical model to be used. One of goodness-of-fit tests to use is the correlation coefficient test.

Distribution free goodness-of-fit tests for linear processes [PDF]
This article proposes a class of goodness-of-fit tests for the autocorrelation function of a time series process, including those exhibiting long-range dependence.
