An introduction on the Anderson-Darling test is available on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson-Darling_test and in the GOFmontecarlo
help page.
The original paper of Laio (2004) is available on his web site.
A2_GOFlaio
tests the goodness of fit of a distribution with the sample x
; it return the value A_2 of the Anderson-Darling statistics and its probability P(A2).
If P(A2) is, for example, greater than 0.90, the test is not passed at level α=10%.
A2
is the Anderson-Darling test statistic; it is used by A2_GOFlaio
.
W2
is the Cramer-von Mises test statistic.
fw2
is the approximation of the probability distribution of w
(first 2 terms) when H_0 is true (Anderson-Darling, 1952); it is used by A2_GOFlaio
.
