SINHA, Comparison of Local Powers of Some Exact Tests for a Common Normal Mean with Unequal Variances, United States Census Bureau (2020), https://www.census.gov/library/working-papers/2020/adrm/RRS2020-02.htmlhttp://hdl.handle.net/11603/19064The inferential problem of drawing inference about a common mean µ of several independent normal populations with unequal variances has drawn universal attention, and there are many exact tests for testing a null hypothesis H0 : µ = µ0 against two-sided alternatives. In this paper we provide a review of their local powers and a comparison. It turns out that, in the case of equal sample size, a uniform comparison and ordering of the exact tests based on their local power can be carried out even when the variances are unknown.21 pagesen-USThis item is likely protected under Title 17 of the U.S. Copyright Law.
