Robust nonparametric tests for the two-sample location problem
We construct and investigate robust nonparametric tests for the twosample location problem. A test based on a suitable scaling of the median of the set of differences between the two samples, which is the Hodges-Lehmann shift estimator corresponding to the Wilcoxon two-sample rank test, leads to higher robustness against outliers than the Wilcoxon test itself, while preserving its efficiency un...
متن کاملSample size determination for logistic regression
The problem of sample size estimation is important in medical applications, especially in cases of expensive measurements of immune biomarkers. This paper describes the problem of logistic regression analysis with the sample size determination algorithms, namely the methods of univariate statistics, logistics regression, cross-validation and Bayesian inference. The authors, treating the regr...

Let Xl' ""Xn be a sample from a population with continuous distribution function F(x -8) such that F(x) +F(-x) =1 and o 80 cannot tend to 1 as 8 -80 -+ 00 more than n times faster than the tails of F tend to O. Some standard as well as robust tests are considered with respect to this rate of conver...
متن کاملOne-Sample Logrank Tests
Introduction This module computes the sample size and power of the one-sample logrank test which is used to compare the survival curve of a single treatment group to that of a historic control. Such is often the case in clinical phase-II trials with survival endpoints. Accrual time, follow-up time, and hazard rates are parameters that can be set. Several authors have presented sample size formu...
متن کاملTests for One-Sample Sensitivity and Specificity
The power analysis of a diagnostic test is often based on the sensitivity and specificity of the test. In such a test, the outcome of the diagnostic screening test is compared to the gold standard. In the common case-control study, the gold standard must be known before. In a prospective study, the gold standard is determined subsequent to the study, so the case-control framework is not appropr...
