DOI: 10.1080/10543406.2022.2080690
Abstract: ABSTRACT Clinical studies are generally required to characterize the accuracy of new diagnostic tests. In some cases, historical data are available from a predicate device, which is directly relevant to the new test. If this… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/math10081316
Abstract: We propose a new goodness-of-fit test for the Rayleigh distribution which is based on a distributional fixed-point property of the Stein characterization. The limiting null distribution of the test is derived and the consistency against… read more here.
