A test of exponentiality against DMTTF alternatives via L-statistics

Dhrubasish Bhattacharyya, Ruhul Ali Khan and Murari Mitra

Statistics & Probability Letters, 2020, vol. 165, issue C

Abstract: A consistent test for detecting DMTTF property is proposed. The exact null distribution of the test statistic as well as its asymptotic distribution have been derived. Efficacy values are calculated, and a simulation study is carried out to assess the performance of the test. Finally, the test is applied to some real-life data sets.
