Description

  • This function gives the test statistic of the K-S test.
  • K-S test is indicating the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.
  • It is one of the non parametric test.
  • This test is the equality of continuous one dimensional probability distribution.
  • It can be used to compare sample with a reference probability distribution or to compare two samples.
  • This test statistic measures a distance between the empirical distribution function of the sample and the cumulative distribution function of the reference distribution, or between the empirical distribution functions of two samples.
  • The two-sample KS test is one of the most useful and general nonparametric methods for comparing two samples.
  • It is sensitive to differences in both location and shape of the empirical cumulative distribution functions of the two samples.
  • This test can be modified to serve as a goodness of fit test.
  • The assumption of the KS test is:
  • Null Hypothesis(H0):The sampled population is normally distributed.
  • Alternative hypothesis(Ha):The sampled population is not normally distributed.
  • The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test to compare a data set to a given theoretical distribution is as follows:
  • 1.Data set sorted into increasing order and denoted as Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle x_i} , where i=1,...,n.
  • 2.Smallest empirical estimate of fraction of points falling below Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle x_i} , and computed as Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{(i-1)}{n}} for i=1,...,n.
  • 3.Largest empirical estimate of fraction of points falling below Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle x_i} and computed as Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle \frac{i}{n}} for i=1,...,n.
  • 4.Theoretical estimate of fraction of points falling below Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle x_i} and computed as  , where F(x) is the theoretical distribution function being tested.

5.Find the absolute value of difference of Smallest and largest empirical value with the theoretical estimation of points.

  • This is a measure of "error" for this data point.
  • 6.From the largest error, we can compute the test statistic.
  • The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test statitic for the cumulative distribution F(x) is:Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle D_n=Sup_x|F_n(x)-F(x)|} ,where Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle sup_x} is the supremum of the set of distances.
