hypothesis_testing

Description

Hypothesis testing between two random samples of distributional representations to detect differences in scale and localization (ANOVA test) or distributional differences (Energy distance).

Usage

hypothesis_testing(data1, data2, permutations=100)

Arguments

data1

A biosensor object. First population.

data2

A biosensor object. Second population.

permutations

Number of permutations used in the energy distance calibration test.

Value

An object of class biotest: p1_mean Quantile mean of the first population. p1_variance Quantile variance of the first population. p2_mean Quantile mean of the second population. p2_variance Quantile variance of the second population. energy_pvalue P-value of the energy distance test. anova_pvalue P-value of the ANOvA-Fréchet test.
