abstract: The basic idea of the excess mass approach is to measure the amountof probability mass not fitting a given statistical model. It came up first inthe context of testing for a treatment effect, was later applied to inferenceabout the modality of a distribution and even density estimation. Recently theframework has been extended to regression problems. In this survey article wedescribe the idea and summarize the main results.
