Fisher, Neyman-Pearson or NHST? A tutorial for teaching data testing
Despite frequent calls for the overhaul of null hypothesis significance testing (NHST), this controversial procedure remains ubiquitous in behavioral, social and biomedical teaching and research. Little change seems possible once the procedure becomes well ingrained in the minds and current practice of researchers; thus, the optimal opportunity for such change is at the time the procedure is ta...
متن کاملGeneral Testing Fisher , Neyman , Pearson , and Bayes
One of the famous controversies in statistics is the dispute between Fisher and Neyman-Pearson about the proper way to conduct a test. Hubbard and Bayarri (2003) gave an excellent account of the issues involved in the controversy. Another famous controversy is between Fisher and almost all Bayesians. Fisher (1956) discussed one side of these controversies. Berger’s Fisher lecture attempted to c...
متن کاملGeneralized Neyman - Pearson Lemma
We extend the classical Neyman-Pearson theory for testing composite hypotheses versus composite alternatives, using a convex duality approach as in Witting (1985). Results of Aubin & Ekeland (1984) from non-smooth convex analysis are employed, along with a theorem of Komll os (1967), in order to establish the existence of a max-min optimal test and to investigate its properties. The theory is i...
متن کاملNoise enhanced hypothesis-testing according to restricted Neyman-Pearson criterion
Noise enhanced hypothesis-testing is studied according to the restricted Neyman-Pearson (NP) criterion. First, a problem formulation is presented for obtaining the optimal probability distribution of additive noise in the restricted NP framework. Then, sufficient conditions for improvability and nonimprovability are derived in order to specify if additive noise can or cannot improve detection p...
متن کاملNeyman-Pearson classification under a strict constraint
Motivated by problems of anomaly detection, this paper implements the Neyman-Pearson paradigm to deal with asymmetric errors in binary classification with a convex loss. Given a finite collection of classifiers, we combine them and obtain a new classifier that satisfies simultaneously the two following properties with high probability: (i), its probability of type I error is below a pre-specifi...
