In this paper, we demonstrate the more accurate confidence intervals for median survival time under the simple proportional hazard model of Koziol and Green (1976) via the Edgeworth expansion for the distribution of the studentized ACL estimator derived in Jeong (2000). The numerical results show that the intervals, so-called test-based and reflect intervals (Slud et al., 1984), outperform normal approximating method in the small sample sizes and/or heavy censoring.

This paper considers a linear regression model with space and time data in where the disturbances follow spatially correlated error components. We provide the best linear unbiased predictor for the one way error components. We provide the best linear unbiased predictor for the one way error component model with spatial autocorrelation. Further, we derive two diagnostic test statistics for the assessment of model specification due to spatial dependence and random effects as an application of the Lagrange Multiplier principle.

The concept of dispersion is intrinsic to the theory and practice of statistics. A formulation of the concept of dispersion can be obtained by comparing the probability of intervals centered about a location parameter. This is the peakedness ordering introduced first by Birnbaum (1948). We consider statistical inference concerning peakedness ordering between two arbitrary distributions. We propose non parametric maximum likelihood estimators of two distributions under peakedness ordering and a likelihood ratio test for equality of dispersion in the sense of peakedness ordering.

A simple method is proposed to detect the number of change points and test the location and size of multiple change points with jump discontinuities in an otherwise smooth regression model. The proposed estimators are based on a local linear regression fit by the comparison of left and right one-side kernel smoother. Our proposed methodology is explained and applied to real data and simulated data.

We introduce a new percentile envelope for diagnosing supernormality in regression analysis. Furthermore, we compare this percentile envelope, which is much simpler and easier, with Atkinson's and Flack and Flores' envelopes. Using percentile envelope, we investigate characteristics of normal probability plots with envelope for error distributions when supernormality is occurred. We give cautions that test result for normality assumption of errors can be reached the wrong conclusion by supernormality.

We consider the comparison of two one-parameter exponential distributions with the complete data as well as the type II censored data. We adapt Bayesian test procedure for nested hypothesis based on the Bayesian reference criterion. Specifically we derive the expression for the Bayesian reference criterion to solve our problem. Also we provide numerical examples using simulated data sets to illustrate our results.

We consider density estimates of the usual type generated by a kernel function. By using the limit theorems for the maximum of normalized deviation of the estimate from its expected value, we propose to use data dependent bandwidth in the tests of goodness of fit based on these statistics. Also a small sample Monte Carlo simulation is conducted and proposed method is compared with Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.

In this paper, we study on a subset selection procedure based on Hodges-Lehmann estimators derived from the Wilcoxon test. To estimate the standard error of the Hodges-Lehmann estimators, the biweight A-estimator of scale is used. The Pitman efficiency of the proposed rule is compared with the Gupta's rule and the trimmed-means rule through a small-sample Monte Carlo study. The results show that the proposed rule satisfies the $P^*$-condition and is very efficient in various heavy-tailed distributions.

Dependence concepts for ordered two-way contingency tables have been of considerable interest. We consider a dependence concept which is less restrictive than likelihood ratio dependence and more restrictive than regression dependence. Maximum likelihood estimation of cell probability under this dependence restriction is studied. The likelihood ratio statistics for and against this dependence are proposed and their large sample distributions are derived. A real data is analyzed to illustrate the estimation and testing procedures.

For autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models, robust unit root tests are developed using M-estimators. The tests are parametric in the sense ARMA parameters are estimated jointly with unit roots. A Monte-Carlo experiment reveals superiority of the parametric tests over the semipararmetric tests of Lucas (1995a) in terms of both empirical sizes and powers.
