Chernoff index for Cox test of separate parametric families
分离参数族 Cox 检验的 Chernoff 指数
The asymptotic efficiency of a generalized likelihood ratio test proposed by Cox is studied under the large deviations framework for error probabilities developed by Chernoff. In particular, two separate parametric families of hypotheses are considered (Cox, 1961, 1962). The significance level is set such that the maximal type I and type II error probabilities for the generalized likelihood ratio test decay exponentially fast with the same rate. We derive the analytic form…
