Self-Similarity Test for Normality

v1.0.0 · Sep 16, 2025 · GPL-3

Description

Implements the Self-Similarity Test for Normality (SSTN), a new statistical test designed to assess whether a given sample originates from a normal distribution. The procedure is based on iteratively estimating the characteristic function of the sum of standardized i.i.d. random variables and comparing it to the characteristic function of the standard normal distribution. A Monte Carlo procedure is used to determine the empirical distribution of the test statistic under the null hypothesis. Details of the methodology are described in Anarat and Schwender (2025), "A normality test based on self-similarity" (Submitted).
