Testing multivariate normality in high-dimensional data analysis has been a long-lasting topic in the area of goodness of fit. Numerous methods for this purpose can be found in the literature. Reviews on different methods given by influential researchers show that new methods keep emerging in the literature from different perspectives. The theory of statistical representative points provides a new perspective to construct tests for multivariate normality. To avoid the difficulty and huge computational load in finding the statistical representative points from a high-dimensional probability distribution, we develop an approach to constructing a test for high-dimensional normal distribution based on the representative points of the simple univariate beta distribution. The representative-points-based approach is extended to the the case that the sample size may be smaller than the dimension. A Monte Carlo study shows that the new test is able to control type I error rates fairly well for both large and small sample sizes when faced with a high dimension. The power of the new test against some non-normal distributions is generally or substantially improved for a set of selected alternative distributions. A real-data example is given for a simple application illustration. |
