Kuiper s test is used in statistics to statistical hypothesis test test that whether a given cumulative distribution function distribution , or family of distributions, is contradicted by evidence from a sample of data. It is named after Dutch mathematician Nicolaas Kuiper . Kuiper s test ref name K1960 Kuiper 1960 ref is closely related to the more well known Kolmogorov Smirnov test or K S test as it is often called . As with the K S test, the discrepancy statistics D sup sup and D sup &minus sup represent the absolute sizes of the most positive and most negative differences between the two cumulative distribution function s that are being compared. The trick with Kuiper s test is to use the quantity D sup sup D sup &minus sup as the test statistic. This small change makes Kuiper s test as sensitive in the tails as at the median and also makes it invariant under cyclic transformations of the independent variable. The Anderson Darling test is another test that provides equal sensitivity at the tails as the median, but it does not provide the cyclic invariance. This invariance under cyclic transformations makes Kuiper s test invaluable when testing for seasonality cyclic variations by time of year or day of the week or time of day, and more generally for testing the fit of, and differences between, circular distribution circular probability distributions . Definition The test statistic, V , for Kuiper s test is defined as follows. Let F be the continuous cumulative ... uniformly distributed . Kuiper s statistic does not change if we change the beginning of the year and does .... Kuiper s test, applied to the event times modulo one week, is able to detect such a pattern.

advert date September 2010 wikify date September 2010 Taco Kuiper Awards The Taco Kuiper fund rewards and encourages investigative journalism in South Africa, and was created by millionaire publisher Taco Kuiper, who set up The Valley Trust shortly before his death. In life, Taco was never shy to take on banks and other profiteers of apartheid policy. Today the Wits Journalism Programme partners The Trust to administer the Taco Kuiper Award and Fund. Taco Kuiper 1941 2004 Taco was a renegade socialite a very wealthy publisher and also an effective investigative journalist in South Africa. He made his fortune as the owner and publishing editor of the lucrative The Investors Guide in Johannesburg, South Africa, a platform he used ruthlessly to expose the many scams in Johannesburg financial circles that bordered on or fell squarely into the bracket of white collar crime. He was also outspoken on the impact apartheid had on making black community poorer. Born in Indonesia in 1941 to Dutch parents, Taco spent his formative years in a Japanese internment camp during the Second World War. His family returned to the Netherlands after the war while Taco was sent to Johannesburg to work for Barclays Bank in the early 1960s. He soon started his own investment statistical service, working from a tiny flat on Joubert Street in Hillbrow. This formed the basis of what became the foundation for his business and wealth The Investors Guide. The Taco Kuiper funeral Taco died of cancer on 24 September 2004.
