An objective comparison between various goodness-of-fit tests for exponentiality
(North-West University, 2018)The exponential distribution is a popular model both in practice and in theoretical work. As a result, a multitude of tests based on varied characterisations have been developed for testing the hypothesis that observed ... -
The probability weighted characteristic function and goodness-of-fit testing
(Elsevier, 2014)We introduce the notion of the probability weighted characteristic function (PWCF) as a generalization of the characteristic function. Some of the properties of the PWCF and of its empirical counterpart are studied and the ...
