Definition p-value and find p-value in practice
I have a problem that I can't solution. Let $\mathbf{X}=\{X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_n\}\sim\mathrm{Uniform}(0,\theta)$ and we have $H_0:\theta=\theta_0$ and $H_1:\theta>\theta_0$. We reject the $H_0$ when $...

Hypothesis Testing and the Generalised Extreme Value distribution
Is it correct to say that the generality of the Fisher-Tippett theorem means block-maximum data will always fit a GEV distribution? And how can we reject hypotheses on GEV parameters?
Original ...

Hypothesis Test: Bound for number of observations from Y that exceed max(X) if X=Y in distribution
I believe this question is related to Extreme Value Theory, an area of statistics that I have not studied.
Let
$X$ and $Y$ be random variables
the null hypothesis be that $X=Y$ in distribution
$\{...

Hypothesis test for minimum/maximum
I need some kind of hypothesis test (or at least a reasonable rule of thumb) that will enable me to validate if observed minimum and/or maximum is "close enough" to the theoretical minimum/maximum. I ...

Comparing min and max estimates
What is the most appropriate way to compare two groups of data in which, rather than a single value for each observation, we have two values per subject - a minimum and maximum value?
Basically, one ...
