Package 'LearnNonparam'

Title: 'R6'-Based Flexible Framework for Permutation Tests
Description: Implements non-parametric tests from Higgins (2004, ISBN:0534387756), including tests for one sample, two samples, k samples, paired comparisons, blocked designs, trends, and association. Built with 'Rcpp' for efficiency and 'R6' for flexible, object-oriented design, the package provides a unified framework for performing or creating custom permutation tests.

name

alternative

a character string specifying the alternative of the test.

depends, plugins, includes

passed to Rcpp::cppFunction().

Details

The test statistic in define_pmt can be defined using either R or Rcpp, with the statistic parameter specified as:

  • R: a function returning a closure that returns a double.

  • Rcpp: a character string defining a captureless lambda (introduced in C++11) returning another lambda that may capture by value, accepts parameters of the same type as const references, and returns a double.

When using Rcpp, the parameters for different inherit are listed as follows. Note that the parameter names are illustrative and may be modified.

  • "twosample": ⁠(Rcpp::NumericVector sample_1, Rcpp::NumericVector sample_2)⁠

  • "ksample": ⁠(Rcpp::NumericVector combined_sample, Rcpp::IntegerVector one_based_group_index)⁠

  • "paired": ⁠(Rcpp::NumericVector sample_1, Rcpp::NumericVector sample_2)⁠

  • "rcbd": ⁠(Rcpp::NumericMatrix block_as_column_data)⁠

  • "association": ⁠(Rcpp::NumericVector sample_1, Rcpp::NumericVector sample_2)⁠

  • "table": ⁠(Rcpp::IntegerMatrix contingency_table)⁠

Defining the test statistic using R follows a similar approach. The purpose of this design is to pre-calculate certain constants that remain invariant during permutation.

Value

a test object corresponding to the specified key.

a data frame containing keys and corresponding tests implemented in this package.

Examples

pmt("twosample.wilcoxon")

pmts("ksample")


r <- define_pmt(
    inherit = "twosample", rejection = "lr", n_permu = 1e5,

Methods

Public methods

Inherited methods

Method new()

Create a new Wilcoxon object.

Usage
Wilcoxon$new(
  type = c("permu", "asymp"),
  alternative = c("two_sided", "less", "greater"),
  null_value = 0,
  conf_level = 0.95,
  n_permu = 10000,
  correct = TRUE
)
Arguments
type

a character string specifying the way to calculate the p-value.

alternative

a character string specifying the alternative hypothesis.

null_value

a number indicating the true value of the location shift.

conf_level

a number between zero and one indicating the confidence level to use.

n_permu

an integer indicating number of permutations for the permutation distribution. If set to zero (default) then all permutations are used.

correct

a logical indicating whether to apply continuity correction in the normal approximation for the p-value.

Returns

A Wilcoxon object.
