Discrete scan statistics are used for testing the null hypothesis that the observations are identically distributed against a clustering alternative that speciΓΏes an increased incidence of observations in a connected subregion of the circle. To implement the testing procedures based on the scan stat

β¦ Synopsis
New approximations are given for the distribution of the length of the ith (iΒΏ1) smallest intervals containing r points, when N observations are randomly distributed on the unit interval, with primary emphasis on the case where N is a random variable.

The distribution theory of runs and patterns has become increasingly useful in the ΓΏeld of biological sequence homology. One important application in detecting tandem duplications among DNA sequence segments is the k-tuple statistic S n; k , the sum of matches in matching-runs of length k or longer
This paper is concerned with investigation into the behavior of the likelihood ratio test statistic G2 when the alternative hypothesis M ( Q ) is the true model. Exact moments of G2 are computed empirically and three approximations are considered for approximating the non-null distribution of G2. Ou
introduced a class of multinomial goodness-of-fit statistics R a based on power divergence. All R a have the same chi-square limiting distribution under null hypothesis and have the same noncentral chi-square limiting distribution under local alternatives. In this paper, we investigate asymptotic ap
