Nonparametric tests of independence for circular data based on trigonometric moments
Eduardo García-Portugués, Pierre Lafaye de Micheaux, Simos G. Meintanis +1
We introduce nonparametric tests of independence for bivariate circular data based on trigonometric moments. Our contributions lie in (i) proposing nonparametric tests that are loc…
An overview of uniformity tests on the hypersphere
Eduardo García-Portugués, Thomas Verdebout
When modeling directional data, that is, unit-norm multivariate vectors, a first natural question is to ask whether the directions are uniformly distributed or, on the contrary, wh…
Simple, asymptotically distribution-free, optimal tests for circular reflective symmetry about a known median direction
Christophe Ley, Thomas Verdebout
In this paper, we propose optimal tests for circular reflective symmetry about a fixed median direction. The distributions against which optimality is achieved are the so-called k-…
One-Step R-Estimation in Linear Models with Stable Errors
Marc Hallin, Yvik Swan, Thomas Verdebout +1
Classical estimation techniques for linear models either are inconsistent, or perform rather poorly, under -stable error densities; most of them are not even rate-optimal. In th…
