A class of tests for change-point detection designed to be particularly sensitive to changes in the cross-sectional rank correlation of multivariate time series is proposed. The derived procedures are based on several multivariate…
In this paper, we propose two new estimators of the multivariate rank correlation coefficient Spearman's footrule which are based on two general estimators for Average Orthant Dependence measures. We compare the new proposals with a…
A necessary and suffcient condition for Pitman's asymptotic relative effciency (ARE) of the Kendall and Spearman correlation statistics for the independence test to be 1 is given, in terms of certain smoothness and nondegeneracy properties…
In this paper we propose a class of weighted rank correlation coefficients extending the Spearman's rho. The proposed class constructed by giving suitable weights to the distance between two sets of ranks to place more emphasis on items…
Kendall's tau and Spearman's rho are widely used tools for measuring dependence. Surprisingly, when it comes to asymptotic inference for these rank correlations, some fundamental results and methods have not yet been developed, in…
Due to the lack of a canonical ordering in ${\mathbb R}^d$ for $d>1$, defining multivariate generalizations of the classical univariate ranks has been a long-standing open problem in statistics. Optimal transport has been shown to offer a…
One of the most popular class of tests for independence between two random variables is the general class of rank statistics which are invariant under permutations. This class contains Spearman's coefficient of rank correlation statistic,…
Deheuvels [J. Multivariate Anal. 11 (1981) 102--113] and Genest and R\'{e}millard [Test 13 (2004) 335--369] have shown that powerful rank tests of multivariate independence can be based on combinations of asymptotically independent…
We propose an estimator of the Hilbert-Schmidt Independence Criterion obtained from an appropriate modification of the usual estimator. We then get asymptotic normality of this estimator both under independence hypothesis and under the…
A CUSUM type test for constant correlation that goes beyond a previously suggested correlation constancy test by considering Spearman's rho in arbitrary dimensions is proposed. Since the new test does not require the existence of any…
Copula models have been widely used to model the dependence between continuous random variables, but modeling count data via copulas has recently become popular in the statistics literature. Spearman's rho is an appropriate and effective…
A margin-free measure of bivariate association generalizing Spearman's rho to the case of non-monotonic dependence is defined in terms of two square integrable functions on the unit interval. Properties of generalized Spearman correlation…
For a set of dependent random variables, without stationary or the strong mixing assumptions, we derive the asymptotic independence between their sums and maxima. Then we apply this result to high-dimensional testing problems, where we…
We consider goodness-of-fit tests for uniformity of a multinomial distribution by means of tests based on a class of symmetric statistics, defined as the sum of some function of cell-frequencies. We are dealing with an asymptotic regime,…
The notion of an e-value has been recently proposed as a possible alternative to critical regions and p-values in statistical hypothesis testing. In this paper we consider testing the nonparametric hypothesis of symmetry, introduce…
In this paper we explore the behaviour of dependent test statistics for testing of multiple hypothesis . To keep simplicity, we have considered a mixture normal model with equicorrelated correlation set up. With a simple linear…
One of the central objectives of modern risk management is to find a set of risks where the probability of multiple simultaneous catastrophic events is negligible. That is, risks are taken only when their joint behavior seems sufficiently…
Pearson's is the most common correlation statistic, used mainly in parametric settings. Most common among nonparametric correlation statistics are Spearman's and Kendall's. We show that for bivariate normal i.i.d. samples the pairwise…
This paper establishes the asymptotic independence between the quadratic form and maximum of a sequence of independent random variables. Based on this theoretical result, we find the asymptotic joint distribution for the quadratic form and…
This article deals with the problem of testing conditional independence between two random vectors ${\bf X}$ and ${\bf Y}$ given a confounding random vector ${\bf Z}$. Several authors have considered this problem for multivariate data.…
