We consider the problem of testing a null hypothesis defined by equality and inequality constraints on a statistical parameter. Testing such hypotheses can be challenging because the number of relevant constraints may be on the same order…
In this paper, we present the general theory of embedding independence tests on Hilbert spaces that generalizes the concepts of distance covariance, distance multivariance and HSIC. This is done by defining new types of kernel on an $n$…
