Testing the mean of an exponential distribution in the presence of outliers
Abbas Mahdavi
Pages: 185 - 190
In this study, we propose a simple robust test for the mean of an exponential distribution by using the simplified version of “Forward Search” (FS) method. The FS method is a powerful general method for identifying outliers and their effects on inferences about the hypothesized model. The simulation...
