In this article, we assume that categorical data are distributed according to a multinomial distribution whose probabilities follow a loglinear model. The inference problem we consider is that of hypothesis testing in a loglinear-model setting. The null hypothesis is a composite hypothesis nested within the alternative. Test statistics are chosen from the general class of divergence statistics. This article collects together the operating characteristics of the hypothesis test based on both asymptotic (using large-sample theory) and finite-sample (using a designed simulation study) results. Members of the class of power divergence statistics are compared, and it is found that the Cressie-Read …

Impulsive transients are often blamed for the destruction of customer appliances. Advances in Power Quality (PQ) monitors will soon make it feasible to incorporate impulsive transients into routine power quality surveys. This paper considers how the transient events captured over a period at many sites may be reported in a simple but useful manner. The paper first summarizes a recent publication by some of the authors, which attempt to give a complete framework for the analysis of utility PQ data. This framework provides a basis for evaluating existing transient characterization practices as well as for the proposed new transient index …
