In this paper, when the parameter of interest is the shape parameter in Pareto distribution, we develop likelihood based inference for this parameter. Specially, we develop signed log-likelihood ratio statistic and the modified signed log-likelihood ratio statistic for the shape parameter. It is well-known that as sample size grows, the modified signed log-likelihood ratio statistic converges to standard normal distribution faster than the signed log-likelihood ratio statistic. But the computation of the modified signed log-likelihood statistic is hard or even impossible when the sufficient statistics and the ancillary statistics are not clear. In this case, one can consider an approximation to the modified signed log-likelihood statistic. Specially, when the parameter of interest is informationally orthogonal to the nuisance parameters, we propose the approximate modified signed log-likelihood statistic. Through simulation, we investigate the performances of the proposed statistics with the signed log-likelihood statistic.

This study deals with the small sample likelihood based inference for the ratio of two normal variances. The small sample likelihood inference is an approximation method. The signed log-likelihood ratio statistic and the modified signed log-likelihood ratio statistic, which converge to standard normal distribution, are proposed for the normal variance ratio. Through the simulation study, the coverage probabilities of confidence interval and power of the exact, the signed log-likelihood and the modified signed log-likelihood ratio statistic will be compared. A real data example will be provided.

이 논문에서는 두 개의 Maxwell분포의 모수들의 동질성을 모수비에 근거하여 검정하는 근사통계량을 제안한다. Maxwell분포의 모수비에 대한 추정량이 복잡하여 정확한 분포를 유도하기는 매우 어렵다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 하나의 대안으로 표준정규분포로 근사적으로 수렴하는 통계량을 고려해야 한다. 이 논문에서 제안된 통계량은 표준정규분포로 수렴하며, 표본의 수가 작은 경우에도 사용할 수 있다. 특히, 본 논문에서는 부호화 로그 우도비 통계량과 수정된 부호화 로그 우도비 통계량을 개발한다. 일반적으로, 수정된 부호화 로그 우도비 통계량은 로그 우도비 통계량에 비해 표준정규분포로 수렴하는 속도가 매우 빠르다. 부호화 로그 우도비 통계량은 작은 표본으로도 표준정규분포로 매우 빨리 수렴한다. 제안된 통계량들의 성질들을 모의실험을 통하여 알아보고, 제안된 통계량을 예제를 통하여 연구한다.

Small sample likelihood based inference for the shape parameter of the inverse Gaussian distribution is the purpose of this paper. When shape parameter is of interest, the signed log-likelihood ratio statistic and the modified signed log-likelihood ratio statistic are derived. Hsieh (1990) gave a statistical inference for the shape parameter based on an exact method. Throughout simulation, we will compare the statistical properties of the proposed statistics to the statistic given by Hsieh (1990) in term of confidence interval and power of test. We also discuss a real data example.

This paper focuses on the likelihood based confidence intervals for two inverse gaussian distributions when the parameter of interest is common scale parameter. Confidence intervals based on signed loglikelihood ratio statistic and modified signed loglikelihood ratio statistics will be compared in small sample through an illustrative simulation study.

We propose a criterion for testing homogeneity of matrix intraclass covariance matrices of K multivariate normal populations, It is based on a variable transformation intended to propose and develop a likelihood ratio criterion that makes use of properties of eigen structures of the matrix intraclass covariance matrices. The criterion then leads to a simple test that uses an asymptotic distribution obtained from Box's (1949) theorem for the general asymptotic expansion of random variables.

We propose a criterion for testing homogeneity of diagonal covariance matrices of K multivariate normal populations. It is based on a factorization of usual likelihood ratio intended to propose and develop a criterion that makes use of properties of structures of the diagonal convariance matrices. The criterion then leads to a simple test as well as to an accurate asymptotic distribution of the test statistic via general result by Box (1949).

When we observe binary responses in a cluster (such as rat lab-subjects), they are usually correlated to each other. In clustered binomial counts, the independence assumption is violated and we encounter an extra-variation. In the presence of extra-variation, the ordinary statistical analyses of binomial data are inappropriate to apply. In testing the homogeneity of proportions between several treatment groups, the classical Pearson chi-squared test has a severe flaw in the control of Type I error rates. We focus on modifying the chi-squared statistic by incorporating variance inflation factors. We suggest a method to adjust data in terms of dispersion estimate based on a quasi-likelihood model. We explain the testing procedure via an illustrative example as well as compare the performance of a modified chi-squared test with competitive statistics through a Monte Carlo study.

We deal with the problem of testing a sequence of independent normal random variables with constant, known or unknown, variance for no change in mean versus alternatives with a single change-point. Various tests based on the likelihood ratio and recursive residuals, score statistics and cusums are studied. Proposed tests are modified version of Buckley's cusum statistics. A comparison study of various change-point test statistics is done by Monte Carlo simulation with S-plus software.

본 연구에서는 환경의식과 철도이용행동의 관련성 분석을 통해 환경의식이 철도이용 촉진에 미치는 시사점에 대해 고찰하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 위상은 2008년 대구광역권 철도이용실태조사의 환경의식과 철도이용행동에 관한 실증적 분석이라는데 있고, 저탄소 녹색성장의 정책을 제언하는 데 있다. 본 연구 결과, 이용교통수단별 4개 인자의 환경의식이 각각 다르다는 점을 통계적으로 증명하였다. 이것은 환경의식이 교통수단선택행동에 긍정적 또는 부정적인 영향을 미치고 있다. 이는 사회적 환경의식이 높을수록 철도이용을 선호한다는 점을 의미한다. 즉, 환경문제에 대한 자동차 이용을 둘러싼 사회적 딜레마를 해결하는 정책으로써 철도이용촉진도 생각할 수 있다. 또한 환경의식지표를 고려해 철도와 승용차와 철도와 버스에 대한 이항프로빗 모형으로부터는 사회적인 환경의식지표가 철도이용의향행동에 긍정적인 영향을, 이기적인 환경의식지표는 부정적 영향을 미치고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 사회적인 환경의식이 높고 이기적인 환경의식이 낮을수록 승용차로부터 철도로의 수단 전환 가능성이 높다는 것을 의미한다. 이 결과에 근거하면 철도이용촉진은 철도서비스 개선뿐만 아니라 환경의식의 계도도 중요하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
