Testing the equality of the covariance matrices of two high-dimensional samples is a fundamental inference problem in statistics. Several tests have been proposed but they are either too liberal or too conservative when the required…
The Behrens-Fisher problem is a well-known hypothesis testing problem in statistics concerning two-sample mean comparison. In this article, we confirm one conjecture in Eaton and Olshen (1972), which provides stochastic bounds for the…
A unified framework is presented to study the two-sample Behrens--Fisher problem -- testing equality of means when two normal populations have unequal, unknown variances -- and a compact expression is derived for the null distribution of…
We propose a new test to address the nonparametric Behrens-Fisher problem involving different distribution functions in the two samples. Our procedure tests the null hypothesis $\mathcal{H}_0: \theta = \frac{1}{2}$, where $\theta = P(X<Y) +…
The Behrens-Fisher Problem is a classical statistical problem. It is to test the equality of the means of two normal populations using two independent samples, when the equality of the population variances is unknown. Linnik (1968) has…
In this paper, the $k$ sample Behrens-Fisher problem is investigated in high dimensional setting. We propose a new test statistic and demonstrate that the proposed test is expected to have more powers than some existing test especially when…
We propose a two-sample test for covariance matrices in the high-dimensional regime, where the dimension diverges proportionally to the sample size. Our hybrid test combines a Frobenius-norm-based statistic as considered in Li and Chen…
This paper is concerned with the problem of comparing the population means of two groups of independent observations. An approximate randomization test procedure based on the test statistic of Chen and Qin (2010) is proposed. The asymptotic…
In this paper new tests for the independence of two high-dimensional vectors are investigated. We consider the case where the dimension of the vectors increases with the sample size and propose multivariate analysis of variance-type…
In this paper, we study the problem of testing the mean vectors of high dimensional data in both one-sample and two-sample cases. The proposed testing procedures employ maximum-type statistics and the parametric bootstrap techniques to…
Testing for multi-dimensional white noise is an important subject in statistical inference. Such test in the high-dimensional case becomes an open problem waiting to be solved, especially when the dimension of a time series is comparable to…
The Welch-Satterthwaite t-test is one of the most prominent and often used statistical inference method in applications. The method is, however, not flexible with respect to adjustments for baseline values or other covariates, which may…
Missing data is a common issue in medical, psychiatry, and social studies. In literature, Multiple Imputation (MI) was proposed to multiply impute datasets and combine analysis results from imputed datasets for statistical inference using…
We propose optimal Bayesian two-sample tests for testing equality of high-dimensional mean vectors and covariance matrices between two populations. In many applications including genomics and medical imaging, it is natural to assume that…
As technology continues to advance at a rapid pace, the prevalence of multivariate functional data (MFD) has expanded across diverse disciplines, spanning biology, climatology, finance, and numerous other fields of study. Although MFD are…
Given a random sample of observations, mixtures of normal densities are often used to estimate the unknown continuous distribution from which the data come. Here we propose the use of this semiparametric framework for testing symmetry about…
Analogues of the frequentist chi-square and F tests are proposed for testing goodness-of-fit and consistency for Bayesian models. Simple examples exhibit these tests' detection of inconsistency between consecutive experiments with identical…
This paper considers the problem of regression analysis with random covariance matrix as outcome and Euclidean covariates in the framework of Fr\'echet regression on the Bures-Wasserstein manifold. Such regression problems have many…
Distance-based regression model, as a nonparametric multivariate method, has been widely used to detect the association between variations in a distance or dissimilarity matrix for outcomes and predictor variables of interest in genetic…
In this paper we consider testing the equality of probability vectors of two independent multinomial distributions in high dimension. The classical chi-square test may have some drawbacks in this case since many of cell counts may be zero…
