Abstract: | The Institute of Mathematical Statistics has published a table of critical values for the multivariate extreme deviate test. However, the critical values, derived by a Monte Carlo simulation, are given for only the dimensions 2 through 5. We present new critical values for the dimensions 6 through 10, 12, 15, and 20. The results are presented in both table and graphical form. All critical values for the test statistic have been generated by a Monte Carlo simulation using 10,000 observations per case. An example is presented using the new critical values. |
