✦ Synopsis

I n this paper we define a new statistic W as a logarithm of the ratio of measures of divergence (as defined by MAHALANOBIS or as defined by BHATTACHARYYA) between two multivariate populations and then we obtain the exact distribution of W by using Characteristic functions, Inversion Theorem and some other results of Operational Calculus. Some of the properties of W-distribution have also been studied with the help of moments.

A maximum likelihood technique is presented for the problem of fitting the ratio of two distributions, as a function of the sampling variable x, which may be multi-dimensional. No binning of the data is involved. A computer program, RATFIT, which implements this algorithm is described.

## Abstract The degree of agreement between two raters is re‐examined. An alternative statistic which uses the chi‐square distribution is proposed. We conclude that this statistic is better than the usual __k__‐statistic when the classification variable is at least ordinal.
