Conditional Independence Restrictions: Testing and Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes
We propose a nonparametric empirical distribution function based test of an hypothesis of conditional independence between variables of interest. This hypothesis is of interest both for model specification purposes, parametric and semiparametric, and for

Inference about Clustering and Parametric Assumptions in Covariance Matrix Estimation [PDF]

open access: yes
Selecting an estimator for the variance covariance matrix is an important step in hypothesis testing. From less robust to more robust, the available choices include: Eicker/White heteroskedasticity-robust standard errors, Newey and West ...

Properties of fractional generalized entropy in ordered variables and symmetry testing

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics
Uncertainty measures are widely used in various statistical applications, including hypothesis testing and characterizations. Numerous generalizations of information measures with different extensions have been developed.

Bootstrap tests for the error distribution in linear and nonparametric regression models [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we investigate several tests for the hypothesis of a parametric form of the error distribution in the common linear and nonparametric regression model, which are based on empirical processes of residuals. It is well known that tests in this

A Trinomial Test for Paired Data When There are Many Ties [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper develops a new test, the trinomial test, for pairwise ordinal data samples to improve the power of the sign test by modifying its treatment of zero differences between observations, thereby increasing the use of sample information. Simulations

DATA-DRIVEN RATE-OPTIMAL SPECIFICATION TESTING IN REGRESSION MODELS [PDF]

open access: yes
We propose new data-driven smooth tests for a parametric regression function. The smoothing parameter is selected through a new criterion that favors a large smoothing parameter under the null hypothesis.
