Asymptotic Pitman's Relative Efficiency
Statistica, 2017 Pitman efficiency is the oldest known efficiency. Most of the known results for computing the Pitman efficiency take the form of bounds. Based on some recent developments due to the authors and some calculus of variations, we develop tools for ...

A General Class of Tests for Testing Homogeneity of Location Parameters against Umbrella Alternatives [PDF]
International Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences, 2018 In this paper, a general class of non-parametric tests for testing homogeneity of location parameter against umbrella alternatives is proposed. Testing for umbrella alternatives has many applications in the field of biology, medicine, botany, dose level ...

The most efficient linear combination of the Sign and the Maesono tests for p-normal distributions
Statistica, 2013 This paper deals with the Pitman most efficient Gr linear combination of the Sign and the Maesono tests for parent distributions belonging to the p-normal family of densities. The most efficient linear combinations G2 and G4 are obtained.

A constructive and unifying framework for zero-bit watermarking [PDF]
, 2006 In the watermark detection scenario, also known as zero-bit watermarking, a watermark, carrying no hidden message, is inserted in content. The watermark detector checks for the presence of this particular weak signal in content. The article looks at this

A Note on Detecting “More IFR-ness” Property of Life Distributions [PDF]
, 2012 In this paper, a problem of testing whether one life distribution possesses “more IFR” property than the other is considered.A new test procedure is proposed and the distribution of the test statistic is studied.

On the combination of the sign and Maesono tests for simmetry and its efficiency
Statistica, 2007 We propose a new test for the simmetry hypothesis which is a combination of the sign statistic and the Wr Maesono statistic. The latter generalizes the Wilcoxon statistic and coincides with it for r = 2. The proposed statistic belongs to the class of non-
