TY - INPR A1 - Liero, Hannelore T1 - Goodness of Fit Tests of L2-Type N2 - We give a survey on procedures for testing functions which are based on quadratic deviation measures. The following problems are considered: Testing whether a density function lies in a parametric class of functions, whether continuous random variables are independent; testing cell probabilities and independence in sparse data sets; testing the parametric fit of a regression homoscedasticity in a regression model and testing the hazard rate in survival models with censoring and with and without covariates.

To test whether the hazard rate has a parametric form the unknown hazard rate is estimated by a kernel estimator. Based on a limit theorem stating the asymptotic normality of the quadratic distance of this estimator from the smoothed hypothesis an asymptotic ®-test is proposed. Since the test statistic depends on the maximum likelihood estimator for the unknown parameter in the hypothetical model properties of this parameter estimator are investigated. Power considerations complete the approach.

After stating some basic notations we will present a data example. Applying standard parametric methods to these data we will see that this approach fails - basic features of the underlying functions are not reflected by their estimates. Our proposal is to use nonparametric estimation methods. These methods are explained in section 2. Nonparametric approaches are better in the sense that they are more flexible, and misspecifications of the model are avoided. But, parametric models have the advantage that the parameters can be interpreted. So, finally, we will formulate a test procedure to check whether a parametric or a nonparametric model is appropriate.

First, test procedures for testing the parameter of a parametric acceleration function is investigated; this is done under the assumption of parametric and nonparametric baseline distribution. Further, based on nonparametric estimators for regression functions tests are proposed for checking whether a parametric acceleration function is appropriate to model the influence of the covariates. Resampling procedures are discussed for the realization of these methods. Simulations complete the considerations.

The proposed test procedure is based on the asymptotic normality of the properly standardized integrated squared distance between a multivariate kernel density estimator and an estimator of its expectation under the hypothesis. The test of independence is a special case of this approach.
