Overcoming the Multiple Testing Problem When Testing Randomness
In this paper we propose a new method for overcoming the problem of adjusting for the multiple testing problem in the context of testing random number generators. We suggest it is to be used in conjunction with an existing method. More generally, the method can be useful in other situations where the multiple testing issue is encountered and the tests involved are not independent of each other,...
متن کاملWhen Can Finite Testing Ensure Infinite Trustworthiness?
In this paper we contribute to the general philosophical question as to whether empirical testing can ever prove a physical law. Problems that lead to this question arise under several contexts, and the matter has been addressed by the likes of Bayes and Laplace. After pointing out that a Bayesian approach is the proper way to address this problem, we show that the answ...
متن کاملThe Oracle Problem When Testing from MSCs
Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) form a popular language in which scenariobased specifications and models can be written. There has been significant interest in automating aspects of testing from MSCs. This paper concerns the Oracle Problem, in which we have an observation made in testing and wish to know whether this is consistent with the specification. We assume that there is an MSC specificat...
متن کاملPartial Knowledge in Multiple-Choice Testing
The intent of this study was to discover the nature of (partial) knowledge as estimated by the multiple-choice (MC) test method. An MC test of vocabulary, including 20 items, was given to 10 participants. Each examinee was required to think aloud while focusing on each item before and while making a response. After each test taker was done with each item, s/he was ...
متن کاملAcknowledge and fix the multiple testing problem.
Vandenbroucke comments ‘Observational research that is started with equally high priors can be expected to perform as well as randomized trials.’ Empirical evidence is on the other side. It is not just hormone replacement therapy that has come a cropper. What about vitamins E and C, and selenium and multivitamins, to name but a few? Maziak points to what appears to be a general problem: claims ...
