Figure 1.22a
shows the histogram of the X data that was converted from the aforemen-
tioned simulated Y data using
Equation 1.95
.
The conversion is based on the model parame-
ters:
a
X
= 1.027,
b
X
= −1.019,
a
Y
= 1.040, and
b
Y
= −0.042. The standard normal PDF is also
plotted for comparison. Visually, the X converted from the Y data seems to fit a standard
normal model reasonably well.
1.5.3.1.2 Normal probability plot and K-S test
The normal probability plot for the converted X data can be obtained using the proce-
dure shown in
Figure 1.9
.
Figure 1.22b
shows the normal probability plots for the con-
verted X data. The p-value for the K-S test can be computed by using MATLAB function
[

p
] = kstest(
X
). Note that
X
must be taken as the input to this function (not
y
), because the
