Mann-Whitney Test for Associated Sequences
Let {X1, . . . , Xm} and {Y1, . . . , Yn} be two samples independent of each other, but the random variables within each sample are stationary associated with one dimensional marginal distribution functions F and G, respectively. We study the properties of the classical WilcoxonMann-Whitney statistic for testing for stochastic dominance in the above set up.
متن کاملEDISON-WMW: Exact Dynamic Programing Solution of the Wilcoxon–Mann–Whitney Test
In many research disciplines, hypothesis tests are applied to evaluate whether findings are statistically significant or could be explained by chance. The Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney (WMW) test is among the most popular hypothesis tests in medicine and life science to analyze if two groups of samples are equally distributed. This nonparametric statistical homogeneity test is commonly applied in molec...
متن کاملCombinatorics, Computer Algebra and Wilcoxon-mann-whitney Test
We show the combinatorics behind the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney two-sample test. This yields new combinatorial proofs of recurrences for its null distribution given recently by Brus and Chang, as well as new recurrences. It is shown how to convert these recurrences into generating functions. These generating functions are used to obtain closed expressions for the null distribution when one of the sa...
متن کاملIncreasing the power of the Mann-Whitney test in randomized experiments through flexible covariate adjustment.
The Mann-Whitney U test is frequently used to evaluate treatment effects in randomized experiments with skewed outcome distributions or small sample sizes. It may lack power, however, because it ignores the auxiliary baseline covariate information that is routinely collected. Wald and score tests in so-called probabilistic index models generalize the Mann-Whitney U test to enable adjustment for...
متن کاملAn improved ranked set two-sample Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon test
The authors present an improved ranked set two-sample Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon test for a location shift between samples from two distributions F and G. They define a function that measures the amount of information provided by each observation from the two samples, given the actual joint ranking of all the units in a set. This information function is used as a guide for improving the Pitman effic...
