# Power Loss for Inhomogeneous Poisson Processes

Source: arXiv

ABSTRACT In this work, based on a realization of an inhomogeneous Poisson process whose intensity function depends on a real unknown parameter, we consider a simple hypothesis against a sequence of close (contiguous) alternatives. Under certain regularity conditions we obtain the power loss of the score test with respect to the Neyman-Pearson test. The power loss measures the performance of a second order efficient test by the help of third order asymptotic properties of the problem under consideration.

[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We propose a goodness-of-fit test for the hypothesis that the observed Poisson point process has a given periodic intensity function against a nonparametric close alternative of known smoothness. We obtain rate and sharp asymptotics for the errors in the minimax setup.

##### Article: Hypotheses Testing: Poisson Versus Self-exciting
[hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: We consider the problem of hypotheses testing with the basic simple hypothesis: observed sequence of points corresponds to the stationary Poisson process with known intensity. The alternatives are stationary self-exciting point processes. We consider one-sided parametric and one-sided non-parametric composite alternatives and construct locally asymptotically uniformly most powerful tests. The results of numerical simulations of the tests are presented. Copyright 2006 Board of the Foundation of the Scandinavian Journal of Statistics..
