Abstract:
We state some necessary and sufficient conditions for admissibility of tests for a simple and a composite null hypotheses against ”one-sided” alternatives on multivariate exponential distributions with discrete support. Admissibility of the maximum likelihood test for “one –sided” alternatives and z χ2test for the independence hypothesis in r× scontingency tables is deduced among others.
