In this paper, we introduce a new approximation for the null distribution of the likelihood ratio test for the general … case. We compare the the critical values obtained by the new approximation to the values which are obtained by the exact … distribution for the cases k=1, 2 to test the accuracy of the new approximation. Also, we compare the results to another …
