Similarly to they way ROC curves are compared by their AUC values for different values of n. That would make more sense to me - we estimate how sensitive is the test to small and large differences in distribution CDFs. Does anyone do that? Thank you! | |
Aug 10, 2018 at 7:51 | comment | added | MInner | @Glen_b Thank you for a great answer! As far as I understood, in all surveys that evaluate statistical power of normality tests, authors use some predefined set of alternative distributions to test against. I belive similar thing happens with nonparametric test, such as KS test - people define parametric families they are interested in and then test against very distinct distributions from them. I wonder why people not consider for each sample size n an integral of function error2(statistical distance) - dependency between type 2 error (not rejecting wrong null hyposesis) for this sample size | |

@gung (ctd)... The densities and arrows I had planned to do via passing dgamma results to polygon and calling arrows to point to them... but time was short, so I cheated and just generated some densities, resized them and pasted them in, via Paint. If I needed to do it again, I'd use polygon and arrows though. (Oh, I should have mentioned, the linear interpolation was via approx )

Jan 7, 2014 at 7:32 | comment | added | Glen_b | @gung Well, plotting the points is simple. The curve came from transforming both variables to achieve near-linearity and fitting a cubic spline but upon realizing I was doing more than required, I simply linearly interpolated the fitted values and transformed back. I could have just interpolated the observed values and you wouldn't see any difference (indeed that's what I implied I did in my answer). ...(ctd) | |
