Goodness-of-Fit Tests via Kernel Density Estimation: Univariate and Multivariate Approaches

Luai Al-Labadi, Ayman Alzaatreh, Ruodie Yu +1

This paper introduces goodness-of-fit tests based on leave-one-out kernel density estimation (KDE) for both univariate and multivariate data. The proposed test statistic takes the…

How to Measure Evidence and Its Strength: Bayes Factors or Relative Belief Ratios?

Luai Al-Labadi, Ayman Alzaatreh, Michael Evans

Both the Bayes factor and the relative belief ratio satisfy the principle of evidence and so can be seen to be valid measures of statistical evidence. Certainly Bayes factors are r…
