Zusammenfassung:This paper concerns the measurement and testing of equality of variability of functional data. We apply the distance standard deviation constructed based on distance correlation, which was recently introduced as a measure of spread. For functional data, the distance standard deviation seems to measure different kinds of variability, not only scale differences. Moreover, the distance standard deviation is just one real number, and for this reason, it is of more practical value than the covariance function, which is a more difficult object to interpret. For testing equality of variability in two groups, we propose a permutation method based on centered observations, which controls the type I error level much better than the standard permutation method. We also consider the applicability of other correlations to measure the variability of functional data. The finite sample properties of two-sample tests are investigated in extensive simulation studies. We also illustrate their use in five real data examples based on various data sets.
