A Method for Exact Testing of 2X2, 2X3, 3X3, and Other Contingency Tables, Employing Binomial Coefficients
Procedures for the computation of the Fisher exact test of 2x2 tables by means of the alignment and multiplication of appropriate binomial coefficients are reviewed and extended to larger tables. The 2x3 table originally employed by Freeman and Halton to illustrate their extension of the Fisher exact test principle is reworked with binomial coefficients, their result being obtained with substan...
متن کاملA Continuous Plane Model to Machine Layout Problems Considering Pick-Up and Drop-Off Points: An Evolutionary Algorithm
One of the well-known evolutionary algorithms inspired by biological evolution is genetic algorithm (GA) that is employed as a robust and global optimization tool to search for the best or near-optimal solution with the search space. In this paper, this algorithm is used to solve unequalsized machines (or intra-cell) layout problems considering pick-up and drop-off (input/output) points. Such p...
متن کاملRecommended tests for association in 2 x 2 tables.
The asymptotic Pearson's chi-squared test and Fisher's exact test have long been the most used for testing association in 2x2 tables. Unconditional tests preserve the significance level and generally are more powerful than Fisher's exact test for moderate to small samples, but previously were disadvantaged by being computationally demanding. This disadvantage is now moot, as software to facilit...
متن کاملExact P - values in Incomplete Multi - way Tables ∗
I develop a new Markov chain algorithm for sampling from sets of multi-way contingency tables defined by an arbitrary set of fixed marginals and by lower and upper bounds constraints on cell counts. My procedure is called the Bounds Sampling Algorithm (BSA) and it relies on the existence of a method to calculate lower and upper bounds for cell entries. BSA accommodates any pattern of structural...
متن کاملExact tests for two-way contingency tables with structural zeros
Fisher’s exact test, named for Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher, tests contingency tables for homogeneity of proportion. This paper discusses a generalization of Fisher’s exact test for the case where some of the table entries are constrained to be zero. The resulting test is useful for assessing cases where the null hypothesis of conditional multinomial distribution is suspected to be false. The test ...
