Research Abstract |
The dataset used in this research is the measurements of wind velocity obtained from an artificial satellite (HRDI), and a rader on the earth, ranging from 80km to 90km at every 1km for 14 days. The interest is to examine the significant difference between these two measuring mechanisms. Considering the dependency of the data, we investigated the statistical testing problem by the following procedure : (1) Based on miscellaneous preliminary data analyses, three kinds of state space models were constructed. (2) Smoothing curves, obtained by the Kalman filter technique, were regarded as an initial sample. (3) Applying a modified moving block method, bootstrap samples were constructed. (4) By mixing the two samples, we made bootstrap samples taken from the null hypothesis. (5) The AUC statistic, which represents the area surrounded by the two smoothing curves, and then the bootstrap distribution were computed, and the statistical testing was carried out. As the result, the following findings were obtained : The wind velocity was affected by measuring altitude and day factors. Also the measurements by HRDI overestimated the true wind velocity. The estimated curves were considered as reasonable, considering the weak wind velocity zone at 90-100km. Next we generalized the problem, and tested the significant difference between two non-stationary dataset (two curves). Eight kinds of testing procedures were proposed, and were compared with some traditional methods. Through simulation sudies based on the wind velocity data, the sizes and powers were examined and compared with each other. As for test statistics, AUC was mainly investigated, however the squared and absolute difference statistics were also taken into consideration. The effect of scale adjustment was also examined. As the result, the proposed bootstrap test using AUC was found to be superior to the traditional methods from the viewpoints of sizes and powers in almost cases.
