A new test to detect monotonic and non-monotonic types of heteroscedasticity

Abstract

A direct parametric test is proposed to detect monotonic and non-monotonic types of heteroscedasticity. After giving brief information about non-monotonic types of heteroscedasticity, the test algorithm is introduced. Proposed test and usual heteroscedasticity tests are compared on monotonic and non-monotonic types of heteroscedasticity in real and artificial data.
