Improving Inadmissible Hypothesis Testing Procedures in Exponential Family Statistical Models (Lrt, Pointwise Compactness, One-Sided Alternatives)
This thesis is devoted to constructing tests of hypotheses that dominate a given test which violates certain conditions such as convexity or monotonicity. Many authors, for example, Birnbaum (1955), Matthes and Truax (1967), Ferguson (1967), Eaton (1970) and Marden (1981), (1982), have worked on …

Unraveling atmospheric physics and chemistry of long-range transport of pollutants: Development of novel tools and methods
Long-range transport (LRT) of pollutants causes changes in background concentrations of pollutants (e.g., ozone, O3; and nitrogen dioxide, NO2) and alarming high peaks of unhealthy criteria pollutants (e.g., particulate matter, PM; and carbon monoxide, CO) in downwind regions. As the chemical …

Differential item functioning on the Myers-Briggs type indicator
… of DlF. Linn and Harnisch's (1981) pseudo-lRT analysis was chosen to test for the presence of DlF in the MBTl items because it is best for tests of relatively small length. The Myers-Briggs subscales range from 22 to 26 items, which is relatively small by lRT standards. lRT analyses …

Weibull mixture model for grouped data and pattern identification in spatial and spatial-temporal data.
… the model and a bootstrap likelihood ratio test (LRT) to compare different models. The performance of the bootstrap LRT is studied via simulation and is compared with model selection criteria AIC and BIC. Situations where bootstrap LRT is preferred in model selection are discussed. In the second …

Leveraging the Linear Response Theory in Sensitivity Analysis of Chaotic Dynamical Systems and Turbulent Flows
The linear response theory (LRT) provides a set of powerful mathematical tools for the analysis of system’s reactions to controllable perturbation. In applied sciences, LRT is particularly useful in approximating parametric derivatives of observables induced by a dynamical system. These …
