On a goodness-of-fit test for the exponential distribution with mean unknown
均值未知的指数分布拟合优度检验
Srinivasan (1970) proposed a two-sided Kolmogorov-Smirnov type test for testing the goodness of fit of exponential and normal distributions with parameters unspecified. For the exponential distribution, this test was reported to have surprisingly better power than a similar test proposed by Lilliefors (1969). We show in this paper that the critical values given by Srinivasan (1970) are too low and the power calculations are incorrect. We give the correct critical values for…
