Nyström Kernel Stein Discrepancy Tests Accelerate Goodness-of-Fit Testing

Researchers have developed Nyström Kernel Stein Discrepancy (KSD) tests that significantly improve the efficiency of goodness-of-fit testing. Traditional KSD estimators have quadratic runtime and computationally intractable null distributions, often requiring bootstrapping. This new method leverages the Nyström method to accelerate KSD estimation, preserving statistical accuracy and key properties like asymptotic level and local consistency. Numerical results show the Nyström-accelerated approach performs comparably to the original method while demanding substantially less runtime. AI

    Kernel Stein discrepancy (KSD) is among the most popular goodness-of-fit (GoF) measures on general domains with a large number of successful deployments. One of the main applications of KSD is in constructing powerful GoF tests. However, tests relying on the classical U-/V-statis…
