Abstract

For normally distributed data from the k populations with mxm covariance matrices [Sigma]1,...,[Sigma]k, we test the hypothesis H:[Sigma]1=...=[Sigma]k vs the alternative A[not equal to]H when the number of observations Ni, i=1,...,k from each population are less than or equal to the dimension m, Ni
