Goodness of fit test for logistic distribution involving Kullback-Leibler information (Ujian kebagusan penyuaian untuk taburan logistik menerusi maklumat Kullback-Leibler)

In this paper, our objective is to test the statistical hypothesis : ( ) ( ) for all against : ( Ho F x  F o x x H1 F x)  Fo (x) for some x , where F o (x ) is a known distribution function. In this study, a goodness of fit test statistic for testing the logistic distribution based on Kullback-...
