Two explicit estimators of the scale parameter in an exponential distribution based on Type-II censored samples are proposed by appropriately approximating the likelihood function. Then two type tests, including the modified Cramer-von Mises test and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test are developed for the exponential distribution based on Type-II censored samples by using the proposed estimators. For each test, Monte Carlo techniques are used to generate critical values. The powers of these tests are investigated under several alternative distributions.

For Type-II censored sample, we propose three modified entropy estimators based on the Vasieck's estimator, van Es' estimator, and Correa's estimator. We also propose the goodness-of-fit tests of the Weibull distribution based on the modified entropy estimators. We simulate the mean squared errors (MSE) of the proposed entropy estimators and the powers of the proposed tests. We also compare the proposed tests with the modified Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Cramer-von-Mises tests which were proposed by Kang et al. (2003).

The objective of this study is to investigate the problem of goodness of fit testing based on nonparametric function estimation techniques for the random censorship model. The small and large sample properties of the proposed test, $E_{mn}$, were investigated and it is shown that under the proportional hazard model $E_{mn}$ has higher power compared to the powers of the Kolmogorov -Smirnov, Kuiper, Cramer-von Mises, and analogue of the Cramer-von Mises type test statistic.

The probability of default on the credit evaluation study is represented as a linear combination of two distributions of default and non-default, and the distribution of the probability of default are generally known in most cases. Except the well-known Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic for testing the identity of two distribution, Kuiper, Cramer-Von Mises, Anderson-Darling, and Watson test statistics are introduced in this work. Under the assumption that the population distribution is known, modified Cramer-Von Mises, Anderson-Darling, and Watson statistics are proposed. Based on score data generated from various probability density functions of the probability of default, the modified test statistics are discussed and compared.

In this paper, we develope three modified empirical distribution function type tests, the modified Cramer-von Mises test, the modified Anderson-Darling test, and the modified Kolmogorov-Smirnov test for the two-parameter exponential distribution with unknown parameters based on multiply Type-II censored samples. For each test, Monte Carlo techniques are used to generate the critical values. The powers of these tests are also investigated under several alternative distributions.

We derive the exact distribution of summation for random samples from uniform distribution and then compare the exact distribution with the approximated normal distribution obtained by the central limit theorem. To check the similarity between two distributions, we consider five existing normality tests based on the difference between the target normal distribution and empirical distribution: Anderson-Darling test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Cramer-von Mises test, Shapiro-Wilk test and Shaprio-Francia test. For the purpose of comparison, those normality tests are applied to the simulated data. It can sometimes be difficult to derive an exact distribution. Thus, we try two different transformations to find out which transform is easier to get the exact distribution in terms of calculation complexity. We compare two transformations and comment on the advantages and disadvantages for each transformation.

We propose a test for independence of bivariate censored data under univariate censorship. To do this, we first introduce a process defined by the difference between bivariate survival function estimator proposed by Lin and Ying (1993) and the product of the product-limit estimators (Kaplan and Meier, 1958) for the marginal survival functions, and derive its asymptotic properties under the null hypothesis of independence. We propose a Cramer-von Mises-type test procedure based on the process . We conduct simulation studies to investigate the finite-sample performance of the proposed test and illustrate the proposed test with a real example.

In this paper, I introduce the goodness-of-fit test statistics for exponential distribution using accelerated life test data. The ALT lifetime data were obtained by assuming step-stress ALT model, specially TRV model introduced by DeGroot and Goel(1979). The critical values are obtained for proposed test statistics, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Kuiper, Watson, Cramer-von Mises, Anderson-Darling type, under various sample sizes and significance levels. The powers of the five test statistic are compared through Monte-Cairo simulation technique.

In this paper, we introduce the goodness of fit test procedure for lifetime distribution using step stress accelerated lifetime data. Using the nonpapametric estimate of acceleration factor, we prove the strong consistence of empirical distribution function under null hypothesis. The critical vailues of Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Anderson-Darling, Cramer-von Mises statistics are computed when the lifetime distibution is assumed to be exponential and Weibull. The power of test statistics are compared through Monte-Cairo simulation study.
