Random Number Generation and Goodness -of- Fit Tests for the Lerch Distribution [PDF]
The Egyptian Statistical Journal, 2004 The Lerch family of discrete distributions includes as special cases the Zipf, Zipf-Manelbrot, the logarithmic and the polylogarithmic distributions. These positively skewed long tailed distributions are used, independent from each other, in linguistics,

Goodness of Fit Tests and Power Comparisons for Weighted Gamma Distribution
Revstat Statistical Journal, 2016 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 ...

Cramer-von Mises and Anderson-Darling goodness of fit tests for extreme value distributions with unknown parameters [PDF]
, 2004 The use of goodness of fit tests based on Cramer-von Mises and Anderson-Darling statistics is discussed, with reference to the composite hypothesis that a sample of observations comes from a distribution, FH, whose parameters are unspecified.

Statistical Power of Goodness-of-Fit Tests for Type~I Left-Censored Data
Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2023 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 ...

Karhunen-loève basis in goodness-of-fit tests decomposition: an evaluation [PDF]
, 2006 In a previous paper (Grané and Fortiana 2006) we studied a flexible class of goodness-of-fit tests associated with an orthogonal sequence, the Karhunen-Loève decomposition of a stochastic process derived from the null hypothesis.

A Novel Goodness-of-Fit Test for Cauchy Distribution
Journal of Mathematics, 2023 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 ...
