3 I. Anderson-Darling statistic and its extension 3 / 27
4 Goodness-of-fit tests X,..., X n : i.i.d. sequence from cdf F Goodness-of-fit test: (G is a given cdf) H : F = G vs. H : F G When G is continuous, we can assume G(x) = x (i.e., Unif(,)) WLOG. Empirical distribution function F n (x) = n n l(x i x) i= Test statistic is defined as a measure of discrepancy between F n (x) and G(x) = x. 4 / 27
5 Goodness-of-fit tests (cont) We focus on two integral-type test statistics. Anderson-Darling (952) statistic: A n = n x( x) (F n(x) x) 2 dx Watson (96) statistic (for testing uniformity on the unit sphere in R 2 ): { U n = n (F n (x) x) 2 dx n (F n (x) x)dx Limiting null distributions: Let ξ, ξ 2,... be i.i.d. sequence from N(, ). As n, A n d k= k(k + ) ξ2 k, U n d k= } 2 2π 2 k 2 (ξ2 2k + ξ2 2k ) 5 / 27
6 Closely looking at Anderson-Darling Anderson-Darling statistic Here, A n = B n (x) 2 x( x) dx where B n(x) = n(f n (x) x) B n (x) = n h [] (t; x)df n (t), h [] (t; x) = l(t x) x h [] (t; x) x t 6 / 27
7 An extension to Anderson-Darling To propose a new class of test statistics, instead of h [] ( ; x), we prepare different type h [m] ( ; x). Note first that h [] ( ; x) is piecewise constant s.t. h[] (t; x) dt = Define h [] ( ; x) to be continuous and piecewise linear s.t. h [] ( ; x) h[] (t; x) (at + b) dt =, a, b x t 7 / 27
8 An extension to Anderson-Darling (cont) General from of h [m] (t; x): h [m] (t; x) = m! (x t)m l(t x) m k= x m! (x u)m L k (u)du L k (t) where L k ( ) is the Legendre polynomial of degree k h [2] ( ; x) x t 8 / 27
9 An extension to Anderson-Darling (cont) We propose an extension of Anderson-Darling: where B [m] n A [m] n = B n [m] (x) 2 dx {x( x)} m+ (x) = n h [m] (t; x)df n (t) = { n F n (x )dx dx m x>x m > >x > m k= x>x m> >x > L k (x )dx dx m } L k (t)df n (t) (m-fold integral of empirical distribution function) A [m] n is well-defined (the integral exists) whenever X i (, ). A [] n is the original Anderson-Darling. 9 / 27
10 II. Limiting null distribution / 27
11 Main results Limiting null distribution W ( ) : the Winer process on [, ] B(x) = W (x) xw () : Brownian bridge Let B [m] n (x) = h[m] (t; x)db n (x). We can prove that as n, B [m] n ( ) d B [m] ( ) in L 2, where B [m] (x) = and hence (by continuous mapping) A [m] n = B n [m] (x) 2 {x( x)} m+ dx d A [m] := h [m] (t; x)db(t) B [m] (x) 2 dx {x( x)} m+ We will examine these limiting distributions B [m] ( ) and A [m]. / 27
12 Main results Limiting null distribution (cont) Theorem (Karhunen-Loève expansion) B [m] (x) {x( x)} (m+)/2 = k=m+ (uniformly in x, with prob. ), where ξ k = (k m )! (k + m + )! L(m+) k (x) ξ k L k (t)db(t), i.i.d. N(, ) L (m+) k is the associate Legendre function. Corollary (Limiting null distribution of A [m] n ) A [m] = B [m] (x) 2 dx = {x( x)} m+ k=m+ (k m )! (k + m + )! ξ2 k ξ 2 k χ2 () i.i.d. 2 / 27
13 III. Moment generating function 3 / 27
14 Moment generating function The moment generating function (Laplace transform) of is A [m] = k= λ k ξ 2 k, λ k = k(k + ) (k + 2m + ) [ E e sa[m]] = k= ( 2s λ k ) 2 Theorem Let x j (s) (j =,,..., 2m + ) be the solution of λ x 2s =, i.e., x(x + ) (x + 2m + ) 2s = Then [ E e sa[m]] = 2m+ j= Γ( x j (s)) j! 4 / 27
15 Moment generating function (m = ) When m = (Anderson-Darling), λ k = k(k + ) The equation x(x + ) 2s = has a solution x (s), x (s) = 2 ± + 8s Hence, [ E e sa[]] = Γ( x (s))γ( x (s)) = 2πs cos π 2 + 8s (Anderson and Darling, 952) Euler s reflection formula Γ(z)Γ( z) = π/ sin(πz) is used. 5 / 27
16 Moment generating function (m = ) When m =. λ k = k(k + )(k + 2)(k + 3). The equation x(x + )(x + 2)(x + 3) 2s = has the explicit solution, because by letting x = y 3/2, LHS =(y 3/2)(y /2)(y + /2)(y + 3/2) 2s = { y 2 (3/2) 2}{ y 2 (/2) 2} 2s is a quadratic equation in y 2 = (x + 3/2) 2. As a result, x (s), x (s), x 2 (s), x 3 (s) = ( ± 5 ± 4 ) 2s + 3, 2 [ E e sa[]] πs = 3 cos( π s) cos( π s) 6 / 27
17 Moment generating function (m = 2) When m = 2, [ E e sa[2]] = (πs) 3/2 432 cos(π η ) cosh(π η 2 ) cosh(π η 3 ) where η = 3 27s s s 728 and η = ( 4η η + 2 ) 2η η 2 = ( 4e πi/3 η 2 35η + 2e πi/3) 2η η 3 = ( 4e πi/3 η 2 35η + 2e πi/3) 2η 7 / 27
18 Calculation of upper prob. Finite representation is useful in numerical calculation. P ( A [m] > x ) = ( ) k k= π λ2k /2 λ 2k /2 (Smirnov-Slepian technique, see Slepian (958)). The case m = : s e xs E [e sa[m] ] ds Upper Prob x 8 / 27
19 IV. Statistical power 9 / 27
20 Statistical power We have the sample counterpart of the KL-expansion: B n [m] (x) {x( x)} (m+)/2 = (k m )! (k + m + )! L(m+) k (x) ξ k where ξ k = k m+ L k (x)db n (x) = n n L k (X i ), k The (extended) Anderson-Darling statistics are also written in terms of ξ k s as A [] n A [] n = k = k 2 i= k(k + ) ξ 2 k = 2 ξ ξ ξ (k )k(k + )(k + 2) ξ 2 k = 24 ξ ξ / 27
21 Statistical power (cont) First two components: ξ = 2nm, ξ2 = 6 5n (m 2 /2), where m k = n n i= (X i /2) k (the sample kth moment around /2) A [] n and A [] n = ξ 2 /2 + has much power for mean-shift alternative, = ξ 2 2 /24 + has much power for dispersion-change alternative 2 / 27
22 V. Extension of Watson s statistic 22 / 27
23 Watson s statistic and its extension Similar extensions are possible for Watson s statistic. Let where U [m] n = h [m] (t; x) = C [m] n (x) 2 dx, C [m] n = h [m] (t; x)df n (t), (t x)m l(t x ) + m! (m + )! b m+(t x) b m (y) is the Bernoulli polynomial, which satisfies U [] n b m (y + ) = b m (y) + my m. is the original Watson statistic. U [] n is proposed by Henze and Nikitin (22). 23 / 27
24 Watson s statistic and its extension (cont) h [] ( ; x) -x h [] ( ; x) and h [2] ( ; x) x t x t x t 24 / 27
25 Limiting null distribution Let C [m] n ( ) d C [m] ( ) and U n [m] U [m]. KL-expansion of C [m] (x): C [m] { } (x) = (2kπ) m+ l [m] 2k (x)ξ 2k + l [m] 2k (x)ξ 2k, where k= l [m] 2k (x) = sin ( ξ 2k = Consequently, 2kπx m + 2 sin(2kπx)db(x), ξ 2k = U [m] = k= ) ( π, l [m] 2k (x) = cos d 2kπx m + 2 cos(2kπx)db(x). ) π, (2kπ) 2(m+) {ξ2 2k + ξ2 2k }. 25 / 27
26 Summary We proposed a class of extended Anderson-Darling statistics A [m] n (m ) based on m-fold integrated empirical distribution function. The limiting null distribution A [m] is explicitly derived as weighted infinite sums of chi-square random variables. We provided moment generating function of A [m] without using infinite product. The same-type extension for Watson s statistic U n is possible. Acknowledgment: The authors thank Y. Nishiyama of ISM. 26 / 27
