Abstract:Using the fact that a multivariate random sample of n observations also generates n nearest neighbour distance (NND) univariate observations and from these NND observations, a set of n auxiliary observations can be obtained and with these auxiliary observations when combined with the original multivariate observations of the random sample, a class of pseudodistance h D is allowed to be used and inference methods can be developed using this class of pseudodistances. The h D estimators obtained from this class c… Show more
