Abstract

In this paper critical values of the Anderson-Darling and Cra[macute]er-von Mises are given for the Laplace distribution for maximum likelihood estimation of the location and scale parameters. The power of these tests is investigated for a number of alternative distributions. The Anderson-Darling test yields higher power generally than the Cra[macute]er-von Mises test.
