摘要：Testing the equality of two covariance matrices is a fundamental problem in statistics, and especially challenging when the data are high-dimensional. Through a novel use of random integration, we can test the equality of high-dimensional covariance matrices without assuming parametric distributions for the two underlying populations, even if the dimension is much larger than the sample size. The asymptotic properties of our test for arbitrary number of covariates and sample size are studied in depth under a general multivariate model. The finite-sample performance of our test is evaluated through numerical studies. The empirical results demonstrate that our test is highly competitive with existing tests in a wide range of settings. In particular,  our proposed test is distinctly powerful under different settings when there exist a few large or many small diagonal disturbances between the two covariance matrices.

摘要：The Poisson item count technique (PICT) is a survey method that was recently developed to elicit respondents’ truthful answers to sensitive questions. It simplifies the well-known item count technique (ICT) by replacing a list of independent innocuous questions in known proportions with a single innocuous counting question. However, ICT and PICT both rely on the strong “no design effect assumption” (ie, respondents give the same answers to the innocuous items regardless of the absence or presence of the sensitive item in the list) and “no liar” (ie, all respondents give truthful answers) assumptions. To address the problem of self-protective behavior and provide more reliable analyses, we introduced a noncompliance parameter into the existing PICT. Based on the survey design of PICT, we considered more practical model assumptions and developed the corresponding statistical inferences. Simulation studies were conducted to evaluate the performance of our method. Finally, a real example of automobile insurance fraud was used to demonstrate our method.
