Adaptive tests of qualitative hypotheses
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 May 2003
Abstract
We propose a test of a qualitative hypothesis on the mean of a n-Gaussianvector. The testing procedure is available when the variance of theobservations is unknown and does not depend on any prior information onthe alternative. The properties of the test are non-asymptotic. Fortesting positivity or monotonicity, weestablish separation rates with respect to the Euclidean distance, oversubsets of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ which are related to Hölderian balls in functionalspaces. We provide a simulation study in order to evaluate theprocedure when the purpose is to test monotonicity in a functionalregression model and to check the robustness of the procedure tonon-Gaussian errors.
