Research Abstract |
We have the following two research results. 1.The non-inferiority testing problem between some treatments is discussed in survival model where the underlying distribution is exponential and data are subject to type I censoring. The asymptotic distribution of the likelihood ratio statistic is derived in two-sample and k-sample cases. One testing procedure for the non-inferiority testing hypotheses is proposed based on the likelihood ratio statistic. 2.The non-inferiority testing problem between two treatments is discussed based on the likelihood ratio statistic. Let the underlying distribution for the two treatments be normally distributed with mean θ and μ, respectively, and common unknown variance. We consider the following general hypotheses including the non-inferiority hypotheses : H_0:θ≧h(μ) v.s. H_1:θ<h(μ), where h(μ)is any continuous and strictly increasing function. In this situation, the asymptotic distribution of the log-likelihood ratio statistic is obtained under the true value on the boundary of the hypotheses. When the true value is any differentiable point, the asymptotic distribution becomes 1/2+(1/2)x^2_1 irrespective to the function h(μ), where x^2_1 is the chi-squared random variable with one degree of freedom. On the other hand, if the true point is any non-differentiable point for the function h(,μ), the asymptotic distribution is expressed in the form depending on right and left differential coefficients of the function h(μ).
