Testing average equivalence - Finding a compromise between theory and practice
No full textRecently, BROWN, HWANG, and MUNK (1998) proposed and unbiased test for the average equivalence problem which improves noticeably in power on the standard two one-sided tests procedure. Nevertheless, from a practical point of view there are some objections aga:inst the use of this test which are mainly adressed to the 'unusual' shape of the critical region. We show that every unbiased test has a critical region with such an 'unusual' shape. Therefore, we discuss three (biased) modifications of the unbiased test. We come to the conclusion that a suitable modification represents a god compromise between a most powerful test and a test with an appealing shape of its critical region. hi order to perform these tests figures are given containing the rejection region. Finally, we compare all tests in an example from neurophysiology. This shows that it is beneficial to use these improved tests instead of the two one-sided tests procedure
Testing model assumptions in multivariate linear regression models
No full textIn the multivariate nonparametric regression model Y = g(t)+ epsilon the problem of testing linearity of the regression function g and homoscedasticity of the distribution of the error epsilon is considered. For both problems a simple test is derived which is based on estimating the L-2-distance between the model space and the space induced by the hypothesis. The resulting statistics can be shown to be asymptotically normal, even under fixed alternatives. This extends and unifies recent results of Dette and Munk (1998a,b) to the multivariate case. A small simulation study on the finite sample behaviour of the proposed tests is reported and their properties are illustrated by analyzing a data example
Presentation of the 1965 Arthur L. Day Medal to Walter H. Munk
No full textI was asked last night "Who is Walter Munk?". Walter Munk has never published
in our Bulletin. This may be the first meeting of our Society he has attended.
His membership I believe, begins today. Yet Arthur L. Day would have been pleased
with the selection of Walter Munk as the 1965 Day Medalist—and for good reason.
Walter Munk's interests and contributions range from oceanography to the mechanical
properties of the earth. He brings a fresh point of view to classic problems and
opens new fields. His approach varies with the subject. It is experimental when new
data are needed; Munk will not hesitate to conceive and build in his own laboratory,
as he is now doing, a mid-ocean tide gage, displacement meters, strain and tiltmeters,
to measure tectonic movements. His approach is also theoretical and numerical
when data remain to be analyzed or explained. Munk was among the first in the
earth sciences to exploit high speed electronic computers

Spectraalanalyse van getijden en hun voorspelling volgens Munk en Cartwright
No full textBij de analyse en de voorspelling van het getij wordt er van oudsher vanuit gegaan, dat de frequenties van de getijcomponenten bekend zijn. Zij volgen namelijk uit een analyse van de gravitatiepotentiaal. Van iedere component moeten de amplitude en de fase, de getijconstanten, berekend worden uit een waarnemingsreeks. Een veel gebruikte analysemethode is die der kleinste kwadraten. Munk en Cartwright hebben in hun methode de gedachte laten varen, dat voor een analyse de van belang zijnde frequenties van te voren gekozen moeten worden. Zij baseren zich daareentegen op een systeemaanpak door het verloop van de waterspiegel te beschouwen als de som van de responsies (output) van een aantal systemen, die ieder hun eigen ingangssignaal hebben. Op het uitgangssignaal is dan nog storing, ruis, aanwezig in de vorm van meteorologische invloeden. De responsies en de storing tezamen vormen nu het verticale getij. De ingangssignalen worden ontleend aan de gravitatieinvloeden van zon en maan en zijn derhalve als functie van de tijd bekend. Het behulp van de theorie van de spectraalanalyse is het nu mogelijk om uit de gemeten waterspiegel en de bekende ingangssignalen de eigenschappen van ieder systeem afzonderlijk te bepalen. Hierbij gaat het, als het lineaire systemen betreft, om de impulsresponsiefuncties of hun equivalent in het frequentiedomein de frequentieresponsiefuncties. Voorspellingen kunnen nu worden uitgevoerd aangezien de output van het systeem berekend kan worden m.b.v. de bekende ingangssignalen en de nu bekende overdrachtsfuncties.VloeistofmechanicaHydraulic EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience
Validation of linear regression models
No full textA new test is proposed in order to verify that a regression function, say g, has a prescribed (Linear) parametric form. This procedure is based on the large sample behavior of an empirical L-2-distance between g and the subspace U spanned by the regression functions to be verified. The asymptotic distribution of the test statistic is shown to be normal with parameters depending only on the variance of the observations and the L-2-distance between the regression function g and the model space U. Based on this result, a test is proposed for the hypothesis that "g is not in a preassigned L-2-neighborhood of U," which allows the "verification" of the model U at a controlled type I error rate. The suggested procedure is very easy to apply because of its asymptotic normal law and the simple form of the test statistic. In particular, it does not require nonparametric estimators of the regression function and hence, the test does not depend on the subjective choice of smoothing parameters
