Download or read book Smooth Tests of Goodness of Fit written by J. C. W. Rayner and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1989-10-12 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Goodness of fit describes the validity of models involving statistical distributions of data, and smooth tests are a subset of these tests that are easy to apply and can be used in any situation in which there are relatively large sample sizes. Both concepts have become increasingly important with the advent of high-speed computers and the implementation of more complex models in the areas of probability and statistics. Written to be accessible to undergraduates with a knowledge of statistics and calculus, this is an introductory reference work that should appeal to all professionals involved in statistical modeling.

Download or read book Chi squared Goodness of fit Tests for Censored Data written by Mikhail S. Nikulin and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-06-29 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is devoted to the problems of construction and application of chi-squared goodness-of-fit tests for complete and censored data. Classical chi-squared tests assume that unknown distribution parameters are estimated using grouped data, but in practice this assumption is often forgotten. In this book, we consider modified chi-squared tests, which do not suffer from such a drawback. The authors provide examples of chi-squared tests for various distributions widely used in practice, and also consider chi-squared tests for the parametric proportional hazards model and accelerated failure time model, which are widely used in reliability and survival analysis. Particular attention is paid to the choice of grouping intervals and simulations. This book covers recent innovations in the field as well as important results previously only published in Russian. Chi-squared tests are compared with other goodness-of-fit tests (such as the Cramer-von Mises-Smirnov, Anderson-Darling and Zhang tests) in terms of power when testing close competing hypotheses.

Download or read book Limited Information Goodness of Fit Testing in Multidimensional Contingency Tables written by Harry Joe and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We introduce a family of goodness-of-fit statistics for testing composite null hypotheses in multidimensional contingency tables of arbitrary dimensions. These statistics are quadratic forms in marginal residuals up to order r. They are asymptotically chi-square under the null hypothesis when parameters are estimated using any consistent and asymptotically normal estimator. We show that when r is small (r = 2) the proposed statistics have more accurate empirical Type I errors and are more powerful than Pearson's X2 for a widely used item response model. Also, we show that the proposed statistics (but not X2 even for the maximum likelihood estimate) are asymptotically chi-squared under the null hypothesis when applied to subtables.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed from the authors’ graduate-level biostatistics course, Applied Categorical and Count Data Analysis, Second Edition explains how to perform the statistical analysis of discrete data, including categorical and count outcomes. The authors have been teaching categorical data analysis courses at the University of Rochester and Tulane University for more than a decade. This book embodies their decade-long experience and insight in teaching and applying statistical models for categorical and count data. The authors describe the basic ideas underlying each concept, model, and approach to give readers a good grasp of the fundamentals of the methodology without relying on rigorous mathematical arguments. The second edition covers classic concepts and popular topics, such as contingency tables, logistic regression models, and Poisson regression models, along with modern areas that include models for zero-modified count outcomes, parametric and semiparametric longitudinal data analysis, reliability analysis, and methods for dealing with missing values. As in the first edition, R, SAS, SPSS, and Stata programming codes are provided for all the examples, enabling readers to immediately experiment with the data in the examples and even adapt or extend the codes to fit data from their own studies. Designed for a one-semester course for graduate and senior undergraduate students in biostatistics, this self-contained text is also suitable as a self-learning guide for biomedical and psychosocial researchers. It will help readers analyze data with discrete variables in a wide range of biomedical and psychosocial research fields.
