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.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-01-27T07:24:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "62G10", "62F05" ], "keywords": [ "deconvolution problems", "testing distribution", "data driven statistic", "random variable", "independent additive noise" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
