Inference on the common mean direction of several Fisher-von Mises-Langevin populations with unknown concentration parameters

Abstract

In this supplementary material, we provide the tables of empirical power values of the tests proposed in the main article. We have tabulated simulated powers of nonparametric bootstrap test N BTA, permutation test P M TA, two alternative tests N BTA1 and N BTA2 for FvML distribution by considering several combinations of sample sizes and concentration parameters. The robustness of these tests is also shown by implementing on contaminated FvML distributions.
