Full TextAbstract
In this paper, we i ntroduce a new goodness-of-fit test for Rayleigh distribu-tion based on Hellinger distance. In addition, some properties about the proposed test is presented. Then, new proposed test is compared with other goodness-of-fit t ests for Rayleigh distribution i n t he literature in terms of power. Finally, we conclude that the entropy based tests demonstrate a good performance in terms of power and we can choose t he Hellinger test as more powerful than the other competitor t ests.
