Testing distribution in deconvolution problems

Denys Pommeret

Published 2009-01-27Version 1

In this paper we consider a random variable $Y$ contamined by an independent additive noise $Z$. We assume that $Z$ has known distribution. Our purpose is to test the distribution of the unobserved random variable $Y$. We propose a data driven statistic based on a development of the density of $Y+Z$, which is valid in the discrete case and in the continuous case. The test is illustrated in both cases.
