Kolmogorov-Smirnov Type Test for Change with Sample Fourier Coefficients

  • Published : 1996.03.01

Abstract

The problerm of testing for a constant mean is considered. A Kolmogorov-Smirnov type test using the sample Fourier coefficients is suggested and its asymptotic distribution is derived. A simulation study shows that the proposed test is more powerful than the cusum type test when there is more than one change-point or there is a cyclic change.
