test.SR {mnt}

Szekely-Rizzo (energy) test

Description

Performs the test of multivariate normality of Szekely and Rizzo (2005). Note that the scaled residuals use another scaling in the estimator of the covariance matrix!

Usage

test.SR(data, MC.rep = 10000, alpha = 0.05, abb = 1e-08)

Arguments

data

a n x d matrix of d dimensional data vectors.

MC.rep

number of repetitions for the Monte Carlo simulation of the critical value

alpha

level of significance of the test

abb

Stop criterium.

Value

a list containing the value of the test statistic, the approximated critical value and a test decision on the significance level alpha:

$Test

name of the test.

$Test.value

the value of the test statistic.

$cv

the approximated critical value.

$Decision

the comparison of the critical value and the value of the test statistic.
