Nonparametric statistical tests are useful procedures that can be applied in a wide range of situations, such as testing randomness or goodness of fit, one-sample, two-sample and multiple-sample analysis, association between bivariate samples or count data analysis. Their use is often preferred to parametric tests due to the fact that they require less restrictive assumptions about the population sampled. In this work, JavaNPST, an open source Java library implementing 40 nonparametric statistical tests, is presented. It can be helpful for programmers and practitioners interested in performing nonparametric statistical analyses, providing a quick and easy way of running these tests directly within any Java code. Some examples of use are also shown, highlighting some of the more remarkable capabilities of the library.

Classical two-sample permutation tests for equality of distributions have exact size in finite samples, but they fail to control size for testing equality of parameters that summarize each distribution. This paper proposes permutation tests for equal
ity of parameters that are estimated at root-n or slower rates. Our general framework applies to both parametric and nonparametric models, with two samples or one sample split into two subsamples. Our tests have correct size asymptotically while preserving exact size in finite samples when distributions are equal. They have no loss in local-asymptotic power compared to tests that use asymptotic critical values. We propose confidence sets with correct coverage in large samples that also have exact coverage in finite samples if distributions are equal up to a transformation. We apply our theory to four commonly-used hypothesis tests of nonparametric functions evaluated at a point. Lastly, simulations show good finite sample properties of our tests.
We present $textbf{PyRMLE}$, a Python module that implements Regularized Maximum Likelihood Estimation for the analysis of Random Coefficient models. $textbf{PyRMLE}$ is simple to use and readily works with data formats that are typical to Random Coe
fficient problems. The module makes use of Pythons scientific libraries $textbf{NumPy}$ and $textbf{SciPy}$ for computational efficiency. The main implementation of the algorithm is executed purely in Python code which takes advantage of Pythons high-level features.
We develop a scalable multi-step Monte Carlo algorithm for inference under a large class of nonparametric Bayesian models for clustering and classification. Each step is embarrassingly parallel and can be implemented using the same Markov chain Monte
Carlo sampler. The simplicity and generality of our approach makes inference for a wide range of Bayesian nonparametric mixture models applicable to large datasets. Specifically, we apply the approach to inference under a product partition model with regression on covariates. We show results for inference with two motivating data sets: a large set of electronic health records (EHR) and a bank telemarketing dataset. We find interesting clusters and favorable classification performance relative to other widely used competing classifiers.
Mutual information is a widely-used information theoretic measure to quantify the amount of association between variables. It is used extensively in many applications such as image registration, diagnosis of failures in electrical machines, pattern r
ecognition, data mining and tests of independence. The main goal of this paper is to provide an efficient estimator of the mutual information based on the approach of Al Labadi et. al. (2021). The estimator is explored through various examples and is compared to its frequentist counterpart due to Berrett et al. (2019). The results show the good performance of the procedure by having a smaller mean squared error.
Gaussian processes are a class of flexible nonparametric Bayesian tools that are widely used across the sciences, and in industry, to model complex data sources. Key to applying Gaussian process models is the availability of well-developed open sourc
e software, which is available in many programming languages. In this paper, we present a tutorial of the GaussianProcesses.jl package that has been developed for the Julia programming language. GaussianProcesses.jl utilises the inherent computational benefits of the Julia language, including multiple dispatch and just-in-time compilation, to produce a fast, flexible and user-friendly Gaussian processes package. The package provides many mean and kernel functions with supporting inference tools to fit exact Gaussian process models, as well as a range of alternative likelihood functions to handle non-Gaussian data (e.g. binary classification models) and sparse approximations for scalable Gaussian processes. The package makes efficient use of existing Julia packages to provide users with a range of optimization and plotting tools.
