Linear Statistics with Expectation and Covariance

Description

Strasser-Weber type linear statistics and their expectation and covariance under the independence hypothesis

Usage

LinStatExpCov(X, Y, ix = NULL, iy = NULL, weights = integer(0),
              subset = integer(0), block = integer(0), checkNAs = TRUE,
              varonly = FALSE, nresample = 0, standardise = FALSE,
              tol = sqrt(.Machine$double.eps))
lmult(x, object)

Arguments

X

numeric matrix of transformations.

Y

numeric matrix of influence functions.

ix

an optional integer vector expanding X.

iy

an optional integer vector expanding Y.

weights

an optional integer vector of non-negative case weights.

subset

an optional integer vector defining a subset of observations.

block

an optional factor defining independent blocks of observations.

checkNAs

a logical for switching off missing value checks. This included switching off checks for suitable values of subset. Use at your own risk.

varonly

a logical asking for variances only.

nresample

an integer defining the number of permuted statistics to draw.

standardise

a logical asking to standardise the permuted statistics.

tol

tolerance for zero variances.

x

a contrast matrix to be left-multiplied in case X was a factor.

object

an object of class "LinStatExpCov".

Details

The function, after minimal preprocessing, calls the underlying C code and computes the linear statistic, its expectation and covariance and, optionally, nresample samples from its permutation distribution.

When both ix and iy are missing, the number of rows of X and Y is the same, ie the number of observations.

When X is missing and ix a factor, the code proceeds as if X were a dummy matrix of ix without explicitly computing this matrix.

Both ix and iy being present means the code treats them as subsetting vectors for X and Y. Note that ix = 0 or iy = 0 means that the corresponding observation is missing and the first row or X and Y must be zero.

lmult allows left-multiplication of a contrast matrix when X was (equivalent to) a factor.

Value

A list.

Examples

wilcox.test(Ozone ~ Month, data = airquality, subset = Month %in% c(5, 8),
            exact = FALSE, correct = FALSE)

aq <- subset(airquality, Month %in% c(5, 8))
X <- as.double(aq$Month == 5)
Y <- as.double(rank(aq$Ozone, na.last = "keep"))
doTest(LinStatExpCov(X, Y))

Cross Tabulation

Description

Efficient weighted cross tabulation of two factors and a block

Usage

ctabs(ix, iy = integer(0), block = integer(0), weights = integer(0),
      subset = integer(0), checkNAs = TRUE)

Arguments

ix

a integer of positive values with zero indicating a missing.

iy

an optional integer of positive values with zero indicating a missing.

block

an optional blocking factor without missings.

weights

an optional vector of case weights, integer or double.

subset

an optional integer vector indicating a subset.

checkNAs

a logical for switching off missing value checks.

Details

A faster version of xtabs(weights ~ ix + iy + block, subset).

Value

If block is present, a three-way table. Otherwise, a one- or two-dimensional table.

Examples

ctabs(ix = 1:5, iy = 1:5, weights = 1:5 / 5)

Permutation Test

Description

Perform permutation test for a linear statistic

Usage

doTest(object, teststat = c("maximum", "quadratic", "scalar"),
       alternative = c("two.sided", "less", "greater"), pvalue = TRUE,
       lower = FALSE, log = FALSE, PermutedStatistics = FALSE,
       minbucket = 10L, ordered = TRUE, maxselect = object$Xfactor,
       pargs = GenzBretz())

Arguments

object

an object returned by LinStatExpCov.

teststat

type of test statistic to use.

alternative

alternative for scalar or maximum-type statistics.

pvalue

a logical indicating if a p-value shall be computed.

lower

a logical indicating if a p-value (lower is FALSE) or 1 - p-value (lower is TRUE) shall be returned.

log

a logical, if TRUE probabilities are log-probabilities.

PermutedStatistics

a logical, return permuted test statistics.

minbucket

minimum weight in either of two groups for maximally selected statistics.

ordered

a logical, if TRUE maximally selected statistics assume that the cutpoints are ordered.

maxselect

a logical, if TRUE maximally selected statistics are computed. This requires that X was an implicitly defined design matrix in LinStatExpCov.

pargs

arguments as in GenzBretz.

Details

Computes a test statistic, a corresponding p-value and, optionally, cutpoints for maximally selected statistics.

Value

A list.
