Tests for almost stochastic dominance

2024-03-22 · Amparo Baíllo, Javier Cárcamo, Carlos Mora-Corral

We introduce a 2-dimensional stochastic dominance (2DSD) index to characterize both strict and almost stochastic dominance. Based on this index, we derive an estimator for the minimum violation ratio (MVR), also known as the critical parameter, of the almost stochastic ordering condition between two variables. We determine the asymptotic properties of the empirical 2DSD index and MVR for the most frequently used stochastic orders. We also provide conditions under which the bootstrap estimators of these quantities are strongly consistent. As an application, we develop consistent bootstrap testing procedures for almost stochastic dominance. The performance of the tests is checked via simulations and the analysis of real data.

Almost Dominance: Inference and Application

2023-12-04 · Xiaojun Song, Zhenting Sun

This paper proposes a general framework for inference on three types of almost dominances: Almost Lorenz dominance, almost inverse stochastic dominance, and almost stochastic dominance. We first generalize almost Lorenz …

Spanning Tests for Markowitz Stochastic Dominance

2018-10-25

We derive properties of the cdf of random variables defined as saddle-type points of real valued continuous stochastic processes. This facilitates the derivation of the first-order asymptotic properties of tests for stoc…

PySDTest: a Python/Stata Package for Stochastic Dominance Tests

2023-07-20 · Kyungho Lee, Yoon-Jae Whang

We introduce PySDTest, a Python/Stata package for statistical tests of stochastic dominance. PySDTest implements various testing procedures such as Barrett and Donald (2003), Linton et al. (2005), Linton et al. (2010), a…

Modified Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney tests of stochastic dominance

2022-10-17 · Brendan K. Beare, Jackson D. Clarke

Given independent samples from two univariate distributions, one-sided Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney statistics may be used to conduct rank-based tests of stochastic dominance. We broaden the scope of applicability of such tests…

Generalized Families of Fractional Stochastic Dominance

2023-07-03 · Ehsan Azmoodeh, Ozan Hür

Introduced by M\"uller et al. in their seminal paper \cite{muller}, fractional stochastic dominance (SD) offers a nuanced approach to ordering distributions. In this paper, we propose a fundamentally new framework by rep…
