This paper proposes a novel two-step strategy for testing the goodness-of-fit of parametric regression models in ultra-high dimensional sparse settings, where the predictor dimension far exceeds the sample size. This regime usually renders…
We introduce two new tools to assess the validity of statistical distributions. These tools are based on components derived from a new statistical quantity, the $comparison$ $curve$. The first tool is a graphical representation of these…
Characteristic-function based goodness-of-fit tests are suggested for multivariate observations. The test statistics, which are straightforward to compute, are defined as two-sample criteria measuring discrepancy between multivariate ranks…
We propose a new lack-of-fit test for quantile regression models that is suitable even with high-dimensional covariates. The test is based on the cumulative sum of residuals with respect to unidimensional linear projections of the…
Let $(Y,(X_i)_{i\in\mathcal{I}})$ be a zero mean Gaussian vector and $V$ be a subset of $\mathcal{I}$. Suppose we are given $n$ i.i.d. replications of the vector $(Y,X)$. We propose a new test for testing that $Y$ is independent of…
This article deals with goodness-of-fit test for the Cauchy distribution. Some tests based on Kullback-Leibler information are proposed, and shown to be consistent. Monte Carlo evidence indicates that the tests have satisfactory…
Given an i.i.d. sample drawn from a density $f$, we propose to test that $f$ equals some prescribed density $f_0$ or that $f$ belongs to some translation/scale family. We introduce a multiple testing procedure based on an estimation of the…
We propose the goodness of fit test for inhomogeneous Poisson processes with unknown scale and shift parameters. A test statistic of Cramer-von Mises type is proposed and its asymptotic behavior is studied. We show that under null…
We consider the problem of the construction of the goodness-of-fit tests for diffusion processes with small noise. The basic hypothesis is composite parametric and our goal is to obtain asymptotically distribution free tests. We propose two…
We provide novel characterizations of multivariate normality that incorporate both the characteristic function and the moment generating function, and we employ these results to construct a class of affine invariant, consistent and…
This paper studies goodness of fit tests and specification tests for an extension of the log-GARCH model which is stable by scaling. A Lagrange-Multiplier test is derived for testing the null assumption of extended log-GARCH against more…
We propose tests of fit for classes of distributions that include the Weibull, the Pareto and the Fr\'echet, distributions. The new tests employ the novel tool of the min--characteristic function and are based on an L2--type weighted…
Given observations from a positive random variable contaminated by multiplicative measurement error, we consider a nonparametric goodness-of-fit testing task for its unknown density in a non-asymptotic framework. We propose a testing…
This paper proposes a new extension of the linear failure rate (LFR) model to better capture real-world lifetime data. The model incorporates an additional shape parameter to increase flexibility. It helps model the minimum survival time…
A large class of goodness-of-fit test statistics based on sup-functionals of weighted empirical processes is proposed and studied. The weight functions employed are Erd\H{o}s-Feller-Kolmogorov-Petrovski upper-class functions of a Brownian…
Based on $m$-fold integrated empirical measures, we study three new classes of goodness-of-fits tests, generalizing Anderson-Darling, Cram\'er-von Mises, and Watson statistics, respectively, and examine the corresponding limiting stochastic…
A natural (yet unconventional) test for goodness-of-fit measures the discrepancy between the model and empirical distributions via their Euclidean distance (or, equivalently, via its square). The present paper characterizes the statistical…
Scalar-on-function linear models are commonly used to regress functional predictors on a scalar response. However, functional models are more difficult to estimate and interpret than traditional linear models, and may be unnecessarily…
We develop a general theory for the goodness-of-fit test to non-linear models. In particular, we assume that the observations are noisy samples of a submanifold defined by a \yao{sufficiently smooth non-linear map}. The observation noise is…
We introduce a simple diagnostic test for assessing the overall or partial goodness of fit of a linear causal model with errors being independent of the covariates. In particular, we consider situations where hidden confounding is…
