Abstract: | Smooth tests of goodness of fit based on orthonormal functions for location-scale families were introducedin Rayner and Best (1986).This paper extends this class of tests from location -scale families to ‘regular’ families. The extension preserves the desirable properties of the class, such as weak optimality, accessible components and convenient distribution theory |
