In statistics, the likelihood-ratio test assesses the goodness of fit of two competing statistical models, specifically one found by maximization over...

medicine, likelihood ratios are used for assessing the value of performing a diagnostic test. They use the sensitivity and specificity of the test to determine...

multiplier test and the likelihood-ratio test, the Wald test is one of three classical approaches to hypothesis testing. An advantage of the Wald test over...

by the likelihood ratio. In frequentist inference, the likelihood ratio is the basis for a test statistic, the so-called likelihood-ratio test. By the...

the likelihood-ratio test (LRT), which for these data give p ≈ 0.00064 {\displaystyle p\approx 0.00064} (see § Deviance and likelihood ratio tests below)...

A monotonic likelihood ratio in distributions   f ( x )   {\displaystyle \ f(x)\ } and   g ( x )   {\displaystyle \ g(x)\ } The ratio of the density functions...

In statistics, the score test assesses constraints on statistical parameters based on the gradient of the likelihood function—known as the score—evaluated...

An F-test is any statistical test used to compare the variances of two samples or the ratio of variances between multiple samples. The test statistic,...

In statistics, G-tests are likelihood-ratio or maximum likelihood statistical significance tests that are increasingly being used in situations where...

all possible tests of a given size α. For example, according to the Neyman–Pearson lemma, the likelihood-ratio test is UMP for testing simple (point)...
