We consider chi-squared type tests for testing the hypothesis H 0 that a density f of observations X1,..., Xn lies in a parametric class of densities F. We consider a version of chi-squared type test using kernel estimates for the density. The main result is, following Liero, Läuter and Konakov...

We consider two tests for testing the hypothesis that a density lies in a parametric class of densities and compare them by means of simulation. Both considered tests are based on the integrated squared distance of the kernel density estimator from its hypothetical expectation. However,...

We give here a simulation study of a density estimator, issued from sharp adaptive estimation. This nonparametric estimator was previously proved to have interesting theoretical properties. In this paper we describe the method and apply it successfully to i.i.d. simulated data issued from...

Choice between different versions of a game may provide a means of sorting, allowing players with different preferences to self-select into groups of similar types. We experimentally investigate whether auctioning off the right to play a prisoner’s dilemma game in which the cost of unilateral...
