The objective of this paper is to propose a nonparametric distribution-free test for ordered alternatives in k crossed factor designs by using the concepts of combined factor and within-blocks ranks. We investigate the asymptotic normality of the proposed test statistic and the Pitman efficiencies. We also compared the small empirical powers of the tests considered in this paper by Monte Carlo study. Thus we can conclude that the proposed test is efficient and robust for the underlying distribution.

In $4{\times}4$ graeco-latin square design, powers of rank transformed statistic for testing the main effect are superior to powers of parametric statistic without regard to the effect structure with equally or unequally spaced effect levels as well as the type of population distributions such as exponential, double exponential, normal and uniform distribution. As numbers of block effect or effect sizes are decreased, powers of rank transformed statistic are much higher than powers of parametric statistic. In case that block effects are smaller than a main effect or one block effect is higher than other block effects, powers of rank transformed statistic are much higher than powers of parametric statistic in $4{\times}4$ graeco-latin square design with three block effects and one main effect.

The treatment effect in clinical tests depending on dose of the drug; however, it can show a decreasing trend in fixed dose level due to side effects. The trend is known as an umbrella pattern; in addition, the method for the umbrella alternative is quite useful when the tendency is predicted in advance. In this paper, we propose a nonparametric method of umbrella alternatives for a one-way layout by using linear placement described in Orban and Wolfe (1982). The Monte Carlo simulation is adapted to compare the power of proposed procedure with previous methods.

This paper reviews Bayesian inference with inequality constraints. It focuses on ⅰ) comparison of models with various inequality/equality constraints on parameters, ⅱ) multiple tests on equalities of parameters when parameters are under inequality constraints, ⅲ) multiple test on equalities of score parameters in models for contingency tables with ordinal categorical variables.

섬진강은 한국 주요 5대강 중 하나로 유량 변동계수가 가장 크다. 이로 인해, 극심한 가뭄이나 홍수의 발생 확률이 높을 뿐만 아니라, 가뭄에서 홍수 또는 홍수에서 가뭄으로 갑작스러운 극한 수문 기상 변화가 일어날 수 있다. 수자원의 안정적인 확보와 수재해로 인한 피해를 최소화하기 위한 수자원 관리와 장기적 수문분석이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 섬진강 유역의 수문 관측소(56개)에서 10년 이상 장기 관측된 일유량 자료(1997년~2020년)를 이용하여 비모수 검정 방법을 통한 추세 분석과 변동점을 탐색하였다. 우선, 일유량 관측 자료를 이용하여 누락된 일유량 관측값으로 생겨날 수 있는 불확실성을 배제하기 위해 관측 기간 중 누락된 일유량 관측값들의 월별 비율을 조사하였다. 그리고 월별 일유량 관측값 누락이 없는 관측소들의 월평균 하천 유량 값으로 연평균 하천 유량 값을 계산하였다. 관측 기간 동안 결측된 값이 없는 28개의 관측소를 대상으로 비모수 검정 방법을 통한 연별 추세 분석(Mann-Kendall Test)과 변동점 탐색(Pettitt Test)을 하였다. 연별 추세 분석 경우 28개의 관측소 중 8개의 관측소에서 통계적으로 의미 있는 추세(신뢰도> 99%)가 탐지되었다. 이들 중 3개의 관측소에서는 증가하는 추세를 보였고 5개의 관측소에서 감소하는 추세가 보였다. 7개의 관측소에서는 통계적으로 의미가 있는 변동점도 탐색되었고 그 변동점이 탐색된 연도는 2011년(4개), 2012년(3개)로 나타났다. 계절적 추세 분석에서는 28개의 관측소 중 각각 봄(MAM) 11개, 여름(JJA) 11개, 가을(SON) 9개, 겨울(DJF) 11개 관측소에서 통계적 추세(신뢰도> 99%)가 탐지되었다. 또한 봄 17개, 여름 7개, 가을 18개, 겨울 18개 관측소에서 변동점이 탐색되었고, 그 연도는 관측소마다 달랐다. 이러한 유량의 추세와 변동점의 원인(기후적/인위적 요소)을 더욱 잘 이해하기 위해, 계절별 유량과 강수량의 상관관계 분석이 연구될 필요가 있다. 이러한 장기 수문기후학적 추세와 변동성에 대한 이해는 농업이 중요한 섬진강 유역의 수자원 관리와 기후변화에 선제대응 할 수 있는 기초를 마련할 것이다.

This article is concerned with the goodness - of - fit test for exponentiality when both the scale and location parameters are unknown. A test procedure based on the $L_1$-norm of discrepancy between the cumulative distribution function and the empirical distribution function is proposed, and the critical values of the test statistic are obtained by Monte Carlo simulations. Also the null distributions of the proposed test statistic are presented for small sample sizes. The power of tests under certain alternative distributions is investigated to compare the proposed test statistic with the well-known EDF test statistics. Our Monte Carlo power studies reveal that the proposed test statistic has good power properties, for moderate-to-large sample sizes, in comparison to other statistics although it is a conservative test.

This paper analyzes the causal relationship between dollar exchange rate and international oil price. Although large literature on the relationship has accumulated, results are not unique but diversified. Based on the idea that such diversified results may be due to different causality at different economic status, we considers an approach to test the causal relationship at each quantile. This approach is different from the mean causality analysis widely employed by the existing literature of the causal relationship. In this paper, monthly data from May 1987 to 2013 is used for the causal analysis in which Brent oil price and Major Currencies Dollar Index (MCDI) are considered. The test method is the nonparametric test for causality in quantile suggested by Jeong et al. (2012). The results show that although dollar exchange rate causes oil price in mean, the causal relationship does not exist at most quantiles.

In this paper we propose three nonparametric tests such as Wilcoxon test, Median test and Van der Waerden test, based on linear rank statistics for detecting edges in images. The methods used herein are based on detecting changes in gray-levels obtained using an edge-height parameter between two sub-regions in a 5$\times$5 window We compare and analysis the performance of three statistical edge detectors in terms of qualitative measures with the edge maps and objective, quantitative measures.

In the analysis of changepoint model the situation where single observation is taken at each time point has been considered. In an effort to extend this to the general situation, we may consider the changepoint model with more than one observation at each time point. These tests are developed without assuming any particular form for the underlying distribution, we propose the one-sided and two-sided nonparametric tests by extending the tests that have been considered in the changepoint model with single observation at each time point and obtain their asymptotic null distributions. We compare the empirical powers among the extended changepoint tests under one-sided or two-sided alternatives. We also compare the powers of the extended changepoint tests with those of the original test via the Monte Carlo simulation.
