Wilcoxon signed rank test for imprecise observations
This article extends the Wilcoxon signed rank test for testing whether the median of a population is a specified constant by treating the observations as imprecise values. The test procedure is developed by using the concepts of “Credibility Theory” for studying the behavior of fuzzy phenomena. Numerical illustration of the proposed test is provided by representing the observations as trapezoid...
متن کاملOptimal signed-rank tests based on hyperplanes
For analysing k-variate data sets, Randles (1989) considered hyperplanes going through k− 1 data points and the origin. He then introduced an empirical angular distance between two k-variate data vectors based on the number of hyperplanes (the so-called interdirections) that separate these two points, and proposed a multivariate sign test based on those interdirections. In this paper, we presen...
متن کاملCrossing survival curves: alternatives to the log-rank test
Background It is not uncommon for clinical trials to present results on survival time as Kaplan-Meier survival curves that cross, indicating non-proportional hazards. A recent example was given in a pivotal trial in advanced nonsmall cell lung cancer (The ‘IPASS study’ [1]). Trials such as these present a hazard ratio and log-rank test for treatment comparison as this is their planned primary a...
متن کاملRoy’s largest root test under rank-one alternatives
Roy's largest root is a common test statistic in multivariate analysis, statistical signal processing and allied fields. Despite its ubiquity, provision of accurate and tractable approximations to its distribution under the alternative has been a longstanding open problem. Assuming Gaussian observations and a rank-one alternative, or concentrated noncentrality, we derive simple yet accurate app...
متن کاملA Bayesian Wilcoxon signed-rank test based on the Dirichlet process
Bayesian methods are ubiquitous in machine learning. Nevertheless, the analysis of empirical results is typically performed by frequentist tests. This implies dealing with null hypothesis significance tests and p-values, even though the shortcomings of such methods are well known. We propose a nonparametric Bayesian version of the Wilcoxon signed-rank test using a Dirichlet process (DP) based p...
