## Statistical Tests The test module includes methods that enact popular statistical tests. The tests that are implemented are Z tests, T tests, and F tests. Also included are methods for developing confidence intervals. Currently regression is not included but it should be included soon (once matrix inversion is fixed). ## Statistics Instance Functionality ### zscore( value[, flag] ) Returns the z-score of `value` taking the jStat object as the observed values. `flag===true` denotes use of sample standard deviation. ### ztest( value, sides[, flag] ) Returns the p-value of `value` taking the jStat object as the observed values. `sides` is an integer value 1 or 2 denoting a 1 or 2 sided z-test. The test defaults to a 2 sided z-test if `sides` is not specified. `flag===true` denotes use of sample standard deviation. ### tscore( value ) Returns the t-score of `value` taking the jStat object as the observed values. ### ttest( value, sides ) Returns the p-value of `value` taking the jStat object as the observed values. `sides` is an integer value 1 or 2 denoting a 1 or 2 sided t-test. The test defaults to a 2 sided t-test if `sides` is not specified. ### anovafscore() Returns the f-score of the ANOVA test on the arrays of the jStat object. ### anovaftest() Returns the p-value of an ANOVA test on the arrays of the jStat object. ## Static Methods ## Z Statistics ### jStat.zscore( value, mean, sd ) Returns the z-score of `value` given the `mean` mean and the `sd` standard deviation of the test. ### jStat.zscore( value, array[, flag] ) Returns the z-score of `value` given the data from `array`. `flag===true` denotes use of the sample standard deviation. ### jStat.ztest( value, mean, sd, sides ) Returns the p-value of a the z-test of `value` given the `mean` mean and `sd` standard deviation of the test. `sides` is an integer value 1 or 2 denoting a one or two sided z-test. If `sides` is not specified the test defaults to a two sided z-test. ### jStat.ztest( zscore, sides ) Returns the p-value of the `zscore` z-score. `sides` is an integer value 1 or 2 denoting a one or two sided z-test. If `sides` is not specified the test defaults to a two sided z-test ### jStat.ztest( value, array, sides[, flag] ) Returns the p-value of `value` given the data from `array`. `sides` is an integer value 1 or 2 denoting a one or two sided z-test. If `sides` is not specified the test defaults to a two sided z-test. `flag===true` denotes the use of the sample standard deviation. ## T Statistics ### jStat.tscore( value, mean, sd, n ) Returns the t-score of `value` given the `mean` mean, `sd` standard deviation, and the sample size `n`. ### jStat.tscore( value, array ) Returns the t-score of `value` given the data from `array`. ### jStat.ttest( value, mean, sd, n, sides ) Returns the p-value of `value` given the `mean` mean, `sd` standard deviation, and the sample size `n`. `sides` is an integer value 1 or 2 denoting a one or two sided t-test. If `sides` is not specified the test defaults to a two sided t-test. ### jStat.ttest( tscore, n, sides ) Returns the p-value of the `tscore` t-score given the sample size `n`. `sides` is an integer value 1 or 2 denoting a one or two sided t-test. If `sides` is not specified the test defaults to a two sided t-test. ### jStat.ttest( value, array, sides ) Returns the p-value of `value` given the data in `array`. `sides` is an integer value 1 or 2 denoting a one or two sided t-test. If `sides` is not specified the test defaults to a two sided t-test. ## F Statistics ### jStat.anovafscore( array1, array2, ..., arrayn ) Returns the f-score of an ANOVA on the arrays. ### jStat.anovafscore( [array1,array2, ...,arrayn] ) Returns the f-score of an ANOVA on the arrays. ### jStat.anovaftest( array1, array2, ...., arrayn ) Returns the p-value of the f-statistic from the ANOVA test on the arrays. ### jStat.ftest( fscore, df1, df2) Returns the p-value for the `fscore` f-score with a `df1` numerator degrees of freedom and a `df2` denominator degrees of freedom. ## Tukey's Range Test ### jStat.qscore( mean1, mean2, n1, n2, sd ) Returns the q-score of a single pairwise comparison between arrays of mean `mean1` and `mean2`, size `n1` and `n2`, and standard deviation (of all vectors) `sd`. ### jStat.qscore( array1, array2, sd ) Same as above, but the means and sizes are calculated automatically from the arrays. ### jStat.qtest( qscore, n, k ) Returns the p-value of the q-score given the total sample size `n` and `k` number of populations. ### jStat.qtest( mean1, mean2, n1, n2, sd, n, k ) Returns the p-value of a single pairwise comparison between arrays of mean `mean1` and `mean2`, size `n1` and `n2`, and standard deviation (of all vectors) `sd`, where the total sample size is `n` and the number of populations is `k`. ### jStat.qtest( array1, array2, sd, n, k ) Same as above, but the means and sizes are calculated automatically from the arrays. ### jStat.tukeyhsd( arrays ) Performs the full Tukey's range test returning p-values for every pairwise combination of the arrays in the format of `[[[index1, index2], pvalue], ...]` For example: > jStat.tukeyhsd([[1, 2], [3, 4, 5], [6], [7, 8]]) [ [ [ 0, 1 ], 0.10745283896120883 ], [ [ 0, 2 ], 0.04374051946838586 ], [ [ 0, 3 ], 0.007850804224287633 ], [ [ 1, 2 ], 0.32191548545694226 ], [ [ 1, 3 ], 0.03802747415485819 ], [ [ 2, 3 ], 0.5528665999257486 ] ] ## Confidence Intervals ### jStat.normalci( value, alpha, sd, n ) Returns a 1-alpha confidence interval for `value` given a normal distribution with a standard deviation `sd` and a sample size `n` ### jStat.normalci( value, alpha, array ) Returns a 1-alpha confidence interval for `value` given a normal distribution in the data from `array`. ### jStat.tci( value, alpha, sd, n ) Returns a 1-alpha confidence interval for `value` given the standard deviation `sd` and the sample size `n`. ### jStat.tci( value, alpha, array ) Returns a 1-alpha confidence interval for `value` given the data from `array`. ### jStat.fn.oneSidedDifferenceOfProportions( p1, n1, p2, n2 ) Returns the p-value for a 1-sided test for the difference between two proportions. `p1` is the sample proportion for the first sample, whereas `p2` is the sample proportion for the second sample. Similiarly, `n1` is the sample size of the first sample and `n2` is the sample size for the second sample. ### jStat.fn.twoSidedDifferenceOfProportions( p1, n1, p2, n2 ) Returns the p-value for a 2-sided test for the difference between two proportions. `p1` is the sample proportion for the first sample, whereas `p2` is the sample proportion for the second sample. Similiarly, `n1` is the sample size of the first sample and `n2` is the sample size for the second sample.
