  Wilks' outlier test in more than one multivariate sample
 
 
Title: Wilks' outlier test in more than one multivariate sample
Author: Caroni, C.
Appeared in: Communications in statistics
Paging: Volume 27 (1998) nr. 1 pages 79-94
Year: 1998
Contents: Wilks' test for a single outlier in a multivariate normal sample is extended to the case of samples from different subpopulations with common covariance matrix, a situation arising in MANOVA, for example. Simulation results show that the size of the test is acceptably robust to moderate heterogeneity in covariances (25-50% difference in total variation), especially if sample sizes are small (below 20 per group). However covariance heterogeneity leads to a drastic loss of power, unless this heterogeneity is concentrated in one dimension and the outlier appears in a different dimension. It is concluded that the extended test should be used with caution since it will often be difficult to establish whether these conditions hold.
