Fixed-α and fixed-β efficiencies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 February 2013
Abstract
Consider testing H0 : F ∈ ω0 against H1 : F ∈ ω1 for a random sample X1, ..., Xn from F, where ω0 and ω1 are two disjoint sets of cdfs on ℝ = (−∞, ∞). Two non-local types of efficiencies, referred to as the fixed-α and fixed-β efficiencies, are introduced for this two-hypothesis testing situation. Theoretical tools are developed to evaluate these efficiencies for some of the most usual goodness of fit tests (including the Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests). Numerical comparisons are provided using several examples.
