We consider testing marginal independence versus conditional independence in a trivariate Gaussian setting. The two models are non-nested and their intersection is a union of two marginal independences. We consider two sequences of such…

This paper proposes a nonparametric test of pairwise independence of one random variable from a large pool of other random variables. The test statistic is the maximum of several Chatterjee's rank correlations and critical values are…

Asymptotic properties of a dimension-robust dependence measure are investigated. It is related to those used in independence tests, but is derivable, thus suitable for independent component analysis. An adjustable kernel allows to…
