High-Dimensional Tests for two Population Mean Vectors

Description

The package contains a few tests for the case of two high-dimensional population mean vectors. The user has the option to compute the asymptotic, the permutation or the bootstrap based p-value of the test.The tests are based on three other packages, namely the highmean, highDmean and the PEtests. We took the codes, modified them and made them more efficient.

High-dimensional tests for 2 population mean vectors

Description

High-dimensional tests for 2 population mean vectors.

Usage

means.test(x1, x2, test = "baisara", cov.equal = TRUE, Rp = 1, Rb = 1, ncores = 1)

Arguments

x1

A numerical matrix with data, where the number of columns (variables) is greater than the number of rows (observations).

x2

A numerical matrix with data, where the number of columns (variables) is greater than the number of rows (observations).

test

The test to run. "baisara" corresponds to the test proposed by Bai and Saranadasa (1996), "cailiuxia" to the test proposed by Cai, Liu and Xia (2014), "chenlizho" to the test proposed by Chen, Li and Zhong (2014), "chenqin" to the test proposed by Chen and Qin (2010), and "sridu" to the test proposed by Srivastava and Du (2008). Finally, the "skk" corresponds to the test proposed by Srivastava, Katayama, and Kano(2013).

cov.equal

This argument applies to the "cailiuxia", "chenlizho" and "chenqin" tests only. If this is true, it assumes that the two population covariance matrices are equal.

Rp

The number of permutations to perform.

Rb

The number of bootstrap samples to draw.

ncores

The number of cores to use. By default is 1, so no parallel computations take place. You are advised to load the necessary libraries prior to using this argument.

Details

These methods are designed for high-dimensional data. If the data dimension pp is smaller than 30 this may result in an inflated Type-I error rate.

Note that these tests were taken from the highmean package, except for the "skk" which was taken from the highDmean package. The "cailiaxiu" and "chenqin" tests here should be the same as in the function pe.test ("clx" and "cq", respectively), but the authors of that package and of the package highmean give different formulas.

Value

A list including:

stat

The test statistic value.

pvalue

The asymptotic p-value of the test.

perm.pvalue

The permutation based p-value will appear only if the argument Rp is greater than 1.

boot.pvalue

The bootstrap based p-value will appear only if the argument Rp is greater than 1.

Power-enhanced high-dimensional tests for 2 population mean vectors

Description

Power-enhanced high-dimensional tests for 2 population mean vectors.

Usage

pe.test(x1, x2, test = "clx", Rp = 1, Rb = 1, ncores = 1)

Arguments

x1

A numerical matrix with data, where the number of columns (variables) is greater than the number of rows (observations).

x2

A numerical matrix with data, where the number of columns (variables) is greater than the number of rows (observations).

test

The test to run, either "clx" corresponding to the test proposed by Cai, Liu and Xia (2014), "cq" corresponding to the test proposed by Chen and Qin (2010). The "pecf" combines the two previous methods using the Cauchy and the Fisher approaches. The "pecomp" updates the "cq" test via the power-enhanced component.

Rp

The number of permutations to perform. This is applicable only for the "clx" and "cq" tests.

Rb

The number of bootstrap samples to draw. This is applicable only for the "clx" and "cq" tests.

ncores

The number of cores to use. By default is 1, so no parallel computations take place. You are advised to load the necessary libraries prior to using this argument.

Details

These methods are designed for high-dimensional data. If the data dimension pp is smaller than 30 this may result in an inflated Type-I error rate.

Note that these tests were taken from the PEtests package. The "clx" and "cq" tests here should be the same as in the function means.test ("cailiaxiu" and "chenqin", respectively), but the authors of that package and of the package highmean give different formulas.

Value

If the test is "clx", "cq" or "pecomp" a list including:

stat

The test statistic value.

pvalue

The asymptotic p-value of the test.

perm.pvalue

The permutation based p-value will appear only if the argument Rp is greater than 1.

boot.pvalue

The bootstrap based p-value will appear only if the argument Rp is greater than 1.

If the test is "pecf" a list including:

cq

A list with the results of the "cq" test, the stat and the pvalue.

clx

A list with the results of the "clx" test, the stat and the pvalue.

pecauchy

A list with the results of the Cauchy combination, the stat and the pvalue.

pefisher

A list with the results of the Fisher combination, the stat and the pvalue.
