This work is concerned with comparison of the recently developed disparity measures for the partial association model in three dimensional categorical data. Data are generated by using simulation on each term in the log-linear model equation based on the partial association model, which is a proposed method in this paper. This alternative Monte Carlo methods are explored to study the behavior of disparity measures such as the power divergence statistic I(λ), the Pearson chi-square statistic X$^2$, the likelihood ratio statistic G$^2$, the blended weight chi-square statistic BWCS(λ), the blended weight Hellinger distance statistic BWHD(λ), and the negative exponential disparity statistic NED(λ) for moderate sample sizes. We find that the power divergence statistic I(2/3) and the blended weight Hellinger distance family BWHD(1/9) are the best tests with respect to size and power.

This paper deals with the robustness properties of the minimum disparity estimation in linear regression models. The estimators defined as statistical quantities whcih minimize the blended weight Hellinger distance between a weighted kernel density estimator of the residuals and a smoothed model density of the residuals. It is shown that if the weights of the density estimator are appropriately chosen, the estimates of the regression parameters are robust.

This paper is concerned with the applicability of the chi-square approximation to the six disparity statistics: the Pearson chi-square, the generalized likelihood ratio, the power divergence, the blended weight chi-square, the blended weight Hellinger distance, and the negative exponential disparity statistic. Three dimensional contingency tables of small and moderate sample sizes are generated to be fitted to all possible hierarchical log-linear models: the completely independent model, the conditionally independent model, the partial association models, and the model with one variable independent of the other two. For models with direct solutions of expected cell counts, point estimates and confidence intervals of the 90 and 95 percentage points of six statistics are explored. For model without direct solutions, the empirical significant levels and the empirical powers of six statistics to test the significance of the three factor interaction are computed and compared.

The minimum disparity estimators introduced by Lindsay and Basu (1994) are studied empirically. An extensive simulation in this paper provides a location estimate of the small sample and supplies empirical evidence of the estimator performance for the univariate contaminated normal model. Empirical results show that the minimum generalized negative exponential disparity estimator (MGNEDE) obtains high efficiency for small sample sizes and dominates the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) and the minimum blended weight Hellinger distance estimator (MBWHDE) with respect to efficiency at the contaminated model.

Robust analogues of the likelihood ratio test are considered for testing of hypotheses involving multiple discrete distributions. The test statistics are generalizations of the Hellinger deviance test of Simpson(1989) and disparity tests of Lindsay(1994), obtained by looking at a 'penalized' version of the distances; harris and Basu (1994) suggest that the penalty be based on reweighting the empty cells. The results show that often the tests based on the ordinary and penalized distances enjoy better robustness properties than the likelihood ratio test. Also, the tests based on the penalized distances are improvements over those based on the ordinary distances in that they are much closer to the likelihood ratio tests at the null and their convergence to the x$^2$ distribution appears to be dramatically faster; extensive simulation results show that the improvement in performance of the tests due to the penalty is often substantial in small samples.

Lindsay and Basu (1994)에 의해 소개된 최소차이추정량 (Minimum Disparity Estimators)들은 실제 자료 분석 도구로써 유용하다. 본 논문에서는 최소일반화음지수 차이추정량 (Minimum Generalized Negative Exponential Disparity Estimator, MGNEDE)이 최대가능도추정량 (Maximum Likelihood Estimator, MLE)와 최소가중 헬링거거리추정량 (Minimum Blended Weight Hellinger Distance Estimator, MBWHDE)에 비해 오염된 정규모형에서 효율적이고 로버스트하다는 것을 모의실험을 통하여 확인하였다. 또한 세 가지 추정량들에 의해 추정된 모수들을 이용하여 판별하였을 때 자 추정량득의 판별율을 비교함으로써 오염된 정규모형에서 MLE의 대안으로 MGNEDE와 MBWHDE를 사용할 수 있음을 보였다.

소표본 분할표 자료에서 적합도 검정통계량들의 카이제곱 근사 적용 가능에 대하여 많은 연구가 진행되었다. 소표본에서 세 가지 검정 통계량(피어슨 카이제곱 Χ$^2$, 일반화 가능도비 G$^2$, 그리고 역발산 Ι(2/3) 검정통계량)에 관하여 비교한 Rudas(1986)의 연구를 확장하여, 최근에 제안된 차이측도(BWHD(1/9), BWCS(1/3), NED(4/3) 검정통계량)를 포함시켜 비교 분석하였다. 독립모형의 이차원 분할표, 조건부 독립모형과 한 변수 독립 모형을 따르는 삼차원 분할표에 대한 모의실험을 통하여 생성된 90과 95 백분위수와 이에 대응하는 95% 신뢰구간을 살펴보고 실제 백분위수와 비교하였다. 그 결과 Χ$^2$, Ι(2/3), 그리고 BWHD(1/9) 검정통계량이 유사한 결과를 나타내었고 이 통계량들이 기존에 제안된 검정통계량들보다 적은 표본크기에서도 카이제곱 근사방법에 적용 가능함을 발견하였다.
