Testing the export-growth hypothesis: some parametric and non-parametric for Ghana
Applied Economics, 1993To test the export-growth hypothesis for Ghana, four parametric causality models (the Granger model, the Sims model, the modified Sims model, the Akaike Final Prediction Error model) and the non-parametric multiple rank F-test model of Holmes and Hutton are estimated for a variety of variable specifications and lag structures.

Hypothesis Testing and Nonparametric Test
2018It is often required to make some inferences about some parameter of the population on the basis of available data. Such inferences are very important in hydrology and hydroclimatology where the available data is generally limited. This is done through hypothesis testing.

A Non Parametric Test of the Expected Utility Hypothesis
1990A nonparametric test of the expected utility hypothesis is developed. It is shown that the expected utility hypothesis holds if there exists a feasible solution to a system of linear inequalities. Furthermore, when a feasible solution exists boundaries on the coefficient of absolute risk aversion can be calculated explicitly.

Non-parametric Hypothesis Testing and Confidence Intervals with Doubly Censored Data
Lifetime Data Analysis, 2003The non-parametric maximum likelihood estimator (NPMLE) of the distribution function with doubly censored data can be computed using the self-consistent algorithm (Tumbull, 1974). We extend the self-consistent algorithm to include a constraint on the NPMLE.

Non-parametric hypothesis tests
1989There are some hypothesis tests which do not require as many assumptions as the tests described in Chapter 10. However, these ‘non-parametric’ tests are less powerful than the corresponding ‘parametric’ tests, that is we are less likely to reject the null hypothesis and hence accept the alternative hypothesis, when the alternative hypothesis is correct.

Using non-parametrics to inform parametric tests of Kuznets' hypothesis
Applied Economics Letters, 2001Simon Kuznets hypothesized that inequality in a country's distribution of income worsens in the early stages of its economic development and that the inequality improves as the country reaches higher stages of development (the ‘inverted U hypothesis’). Empirical support for the inverted U hypothesis has been mixed.

Non parametric hypothesis tests for comparing reliability functions
Communications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2016ABSTRACTIn reliability and related disciplines, comparing reliability functions of two (or more) aging processes is a crucial step in the process of determining reliability and understanding an aging process. The aim of this paper is to propose a non parametric statistical methodology to compare two populations based on their mean residual life ...

In multiple simultaneous hypothesis testing (MSHT), a significance thresholding function as a scalar statistic can be designed in an adaptive manner by sharing information among many tests performed simultaneously. By using such an adapted statistic, MSHT has greater detection power than tests using simple individual statistics.

A parametric approach to kinship hypothesis testing using identity-by-descent parameters
Statistical Applications in Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2015AbstractThere is a large number of applications where family relationships need to be determined from DNA data. In forensic science, competing ideas are in general verbally formulated as the two hypotheses of a test. For the most common paternity case, the null hypothesis states that the alleged father is the true father against the alternative ...
