Abstract

In this contribution, a class of time-domain procedures for testing that a stationary time-series is Gaussian, is presented. These tests are based on minimum chi-square statistics in the deviations of certain sample statistics from their ensemble counterpart. Exact asymptotic distributions of these tests are derived under the null hypothesis of Gaussianity and under a class of local and fixed alternatives. Two specific tests are then developed, based respectively on the third-order and the fourth-order moments and on the characteristic functions. Extensive simulations are presented to illustrate the power of the test against various alternatives (including additive and non-additive contaminations and non-linear serial dependence.
