Abstract:
Recently, the likelihood ratio (LR) test was proposed to test the homogeneity of a three-sample model with a mixture structure. Because of the presence of the mixture structure, the null limiting distribution of the LR test has a complicated supremum form, which leads to challenges in determining p-values. In addition, the LR test cannot control type-I errors well under small to moderate sample size. In this paper, we propose seven generalized fiducial methods to test the homogeneity of the three-sample model. Via simulation studies, we find that our methods perform significantly better than the LR test method in controlling the type-I errors under small to moderate sample size, while they have comparable powers in most cases. A halibut data example is used to illustrate the proposed methods.
