Distribution-Free Tests in Time-Series Based on the Breaking of Records
基于破纪录次数的时间序列分布无关检验
Summary Two simple statistics are proposed as distribution-free tests of the randomness of a series of observations. They are linear functions of the numbers of upper and lower records which occur in the series. They are uncorrelated and asymptotically normally distributed. One provides a consistent test against trend in the mean and the other a consistent test against trend in the variance. Power functions for the former test have been computed, and it is pointed out that…
