Spectrum-Based Comparison of Stationary Multivariate Time Series

The problem of comparison of several multivariate time series via their spectral properties is discussed. A pairwise comparison between two independent multivariate stationary time series via a likelihood ratio test based on the estimated cross-spectra of the series yields a quasi-distance between the series. A hierarchical clustering algorithm is then employed to compare several time series given the quasi-distance matrix. For use in situations where components of the multivariate time series are measured in different units of scale, a modified quasi-distance based on a profile likelihood based estimation of the scale parameter is described. The approach is illustrated using simulated data and data on daily temperatures and precipitations at multiple locations. A comparison between hierarchical clustering based on the likelihood ratio test quasi-distance and a quasi-distance described in Kakizawa et al. (J Am Stat Assoc 93:328–340, 1998) is interesting.

Some Simple Test Procedures for Normal Mean Vector with Incomplete Data

The problem of testing normal mean vector when the observations are missing from subsets of components is considered. For a data matrix with a monotone pattern, three simple exact tests are proposed as alternatives to the traditional likelihood ratio test. Numerical power comparisons between the proposed tests and the likelihood ratio test suggest that one of the proposed tests is indeed comparable to the likelihood ratio test and the other two tests perform better than the likelihood ratio test over a part of the parameter space. The results are extended to a nonmonotone pattern and illustrated using an example.

Nonparametric likelihood ratio goodness-of-fit tests for survival data

Berk and Jones (Z. Wahrsch. Verw. Gebiete 47 (1979) 47) described a nonparametric likelihood test of uniformity that is more efficient, in Bahadur's sense, than any weighted Kolmogorov-Smirnov test at any alternative. This article shows how to obtain a nonparametric likelihood test of a general parametric family for incomplete survival data. A nonparametric likelihood ratio test process is employed to measure the discrepancy between a parametric family and the observed data. Large sample properties of the likelihood ratio test process are studied under both the null and alternative hypotheses. A Monte Carlo simulation method is proposed to estimate its null distribution. We show how to produce a likelihood ratio graphical check as well as a formal test of a parametric family based on the developed theory. Our method is developed for the right-censorship model, but can be easily extended to some other survival models. Illustrations are given using both real and simulated data.     

Local likelihood ratio tests in the normal mixture model

The test for homogeneity in the mixture normal model is difficult to study due to the breakdown of the regularity conditions under standard theory. The asymptotic optimality of the likelihood ratio test is questionable and its distributional properties are also difficult to evaluate. In this paper, we consider and compare several tests based on the local likelihood ratio which are shown to be quite competitive compared with the generalized likelihood ratio test.

Partial penalized empirical likelihood ratio test under sparse case

A consistent test via the partial penalized empirical likelihood approach for the parametric hypothesis testing under the sparse case, called the partial penalized empirical likelihood ratio (PPELR) test, is proposed in this paper. Our results are demonstrated for the mean vector in multivariate analysis and regression coefficients in linear models, respectively. And we establish its asymptotic distributions under the null hypothesis and the local alternatives of order n^?1/2 under regularity conditions. Meanwhile, the oracle property of the partial penalized empirical likelihood estimator also holds. The proposed PPELR test statistic performs as well as the ordinary empirical likelihood ratio test statistic and outperforms the full penalized empirical likelihood ratio test statistic in term of size and power when the null parameter is zero. Moreover, the proposed method obtains the variable selection as well as the p-values of testing. Numerical simulations and an analysis of Prostate Cancer data confirm our theoretical findings and demonstrate the promising performance of the proposed method in hypothesis testing and variable selection.
