Kolmogorov's goodness-of-fit measure, Dn , for a sample CDF has consistently been set aside for methods such as the D+n or D-n of Smirnov, primarily, it seems, because of the difficulty of computing the distribution of Dn . As far as we know, no easy way to compute that distribution has ever been provided in the 70+ years since Kolmogorov's fundamental paper. We provide one here, a C procedure that provides Pr(Dn .999 with n's of several thousand, we provide a quick approximation that gives accuracy to the 7th digit for such cases.

An introduction to mathematical statistical and its applications / Richard J. Larsen, Morris L. Marx

Large cities produce more output per capita than small cities. This higher productivity may occur because more talented individuals sort into large cities, because large cities select more productive entrepreneurs and firms, or because of agglomeration economies. We develop a model of systems of cities that combines all three elements and suggests interesting complementarities between them. The model can replicate stylized facts about sorting, agglomeration, and selection in cities. It also generates Zipf’s law for cities under empirically plausible parameter values. Finally, it provides a useful framework within which to reinterpret extant empirical evidence.

This paper presents a derivation of the distribution of the Kolmogorov–Smirnov, Cramer–von Mises, and Anderson–Darling test statistics in the case of exponential sampling when the parameters are unknown and estimated from sample data for small sample sizes via maximum likelihood.

Computing the cumulative distribution function of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic

An algorithm for computing the PDF of order statistics drawn from discrete parent populations is presented, along with an implementation of the algorithm in a computer algebra system. Several examples and applications, including exact bootstrapping analysis, illustrate the utility of this algorithm. Bootstrapping procedures require that B bootstrap samples be generated in order to perform statistical inference concerning a data set. Although the requirements for the magnitude of B are typically modest, a practitioner would prefer to avoid the resampling error introduced by choosing a finite B, if possible. The part of the order-statistic algorithm for sampling with replacement from a finite sample can be used to perform exact bootstrapping analysis in certain applications, eliminating the need for replication in the analysis of a data set.
