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 ...

New Goodness-of-Fit Tests for the Kumaraswamy Distribution
The two-parameter distribution known as the Kumaraswamy distribution is a very flexible alternative to the beta distribution with the same (0,1) support.

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

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

We review two powerful methods to test the Gaussianity of the cosmic microwave background (CMB): one based on the distribution of spherical wavelet coefficients and the other on smooth tests of goodness-of-fit.

ABSTRACT Background Psychological safety (PS) is essential for teamwork, communication, and patient safety in complex healthcare environments. In pediatric oncology, interprofessional collaboration occurs under high emotional and organizational demands. Low PS may increase stress, burnout, and adverse events.

Neyman smooth-type goodness-of-fit tests in complex surveys
In this study, we extend Neyman smooth-type goodness-of-fit tests to complex survey settings involving categorical data, by incorporating design-consistent estimators under the survey framework.

ABSTRACT Background Chronic kidney disease is a growing public health problem worldwide, and the number of patients requiring renal replacement therapy is steadily increasing. Türkiye has experienced a similar rise in both the incidence and prevalence of renal replacement therapy over the past decades; however, national‐level projections of future ...

Goodness-of-fit tests via phi-divergences
A unified family of goodness-of-fit tests based on $\phi$-divergences is introduced and studied. The new family of test statistics $S_n(s)$ includes both the supremum version of the Anderson--Darling statistic and the test statistic of Berk and Jones [Z.

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our
