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 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...
متن کاملA Generalization of Wilcoxon Rank Sum Test
In this paper, we consider applying the Wilcoxon’s idea for the construction of the one-sample problem to the two-sample case. For this, we show that the location translation parameter becomes a median of the distribution of the difference of two independent random variables under the location translation model. Based on this fact, we construct generalized signed-rank statistics for the two sam...
متن کاملThe Wilcoxon signed rank test for paired comparisons of clustered data.
The Wilcoxon signed rank test is a frequently used nonparametric test for paired data (e.g., consisting of pre- and posttreatment measurements) based on independent units of analysis. This test cannot be used for paired comparisons arising from clustered data (e.g., if paired comparisons are available for each of two eyes of an individual). To incorporate clustering, a generalization of the ran...
متن کاملPower calculations for preclinical studies using a K-sample rank test and the Lehmann alternative hypothesis.
Power calculations in a small sample comparative study, with a continuous outcome measure, are typically undertaken using the asymptotic distribution of the test statistic. When the sample size is small, this asymptotic result can be a poor approximation. An alternative approach, using a rank based test statistic, is an exact power calculation. When the number of groups is greater than two, the...
