Bayesian t tests for accepting and rejecting the null hypothesis.
Progress in science often comes from discovering invariances in relationships among variables; these invariances often correspond to null hypotheses. As is commonly known, it is not possible to state evidence for the null hypothesis in conventional significance testing. Here we highlight a Bayes factor alternative to the conventional t test that will allow researchers to express preference for ...
متن کاملA Word-spotting Hypothesis Testing for Accepting/Rejecting Continuous Speech Recognition Output
The word rejection problem in speech recognition is formulated in a framework of word-spotting, where a spotted word is verified through a binary, acceptance/rejection decision. A generalized word posterior probability (GWPP), used as the sole confidence measure, is computed in a word graph, via the forward-backward algorithm or in an N-best list, using string likelihoods. The GWPP is further e...
متن کاملAssertion, Denial, Accepting, Rejecting, Symmetry & Paradox
Proponents of “truth-value glut” responses to the paradoxes of selfreference, such as Priest [7, 8] argue that “truth-value gap” analyses of the paradoxes fall foul of the strengthened liar paradox: “this sentence is not true.” If we pay attention to the role of assertion and denial and the behaviour of negation in both “gap” and “glut” analyses, we see that the situation with these approaches ...
متن کاملThe Joint Null Criterion for Multiple Hypothesis Tests
Simultaneously performing many hypothesis tests is a problem commonly encountered in high-dimensional biology. In this setting, a large set of p-values is calculated from many related features measured simultaneously. Classical statistics provides a criterion for defining what a “correct” p-value is when performing a single hypothesis test. We show here that even when each p-value is marginally...
متن کاملAn alternative to null-hypothesis significance tests.
The statistic p(rep) estimates the probability of replicating an effect. It captures traditional publication criteria for signal-to-noise ratio, while avoiding parametric inference and the resulting Bayesian dilemma. In concert with effect size and replication intervals, p(rep) provides all of the information now used in evaluating research, while avoiding many of the pitfalls of traditional st...
