Entropy based on the goodness-of-fit tests for multivariate distributions
This thesis offers a non-parametric test of goodness-of-fit for a class of multivariate generalized Gaussian distributions based on the maximum Shannon entropy principle andthe k-th nearest neighbour distances method of Shannon entropy. It also presents a non parametric test of goodness-of-fit for a classes of multivariate Student and Pearson type II (or Barenblatt ) distributions based on the maximum Rényi entropy principle. Moreover, it introduces three generalizations of von Mises-Fisher distribution on a sphere
and the maximum Shannon entropy principle for them. Based on the L^2-consistency of the k-th nearest neighbour estimate of Shannon entropy. The results are supported by a Monte Carlo simulation.
