Test for a given mean direction | R Documentation |
A log-likelihood ratio test for testing whether the sample mena direction is equal to some predefined one.
meandir.test(x, mu, B = 999)
x |
A matrix with the data, unit vectors. |
mu |
A unit vector with the hypothesized mean direction. |
B |
A number either 1, so no bootstrap calibration is performed or more than 1, so bootstrap calibration is performed. |
The log-likelihood ratio test is performed.
A list including:
mean.dir |
The sample mean direction |
pvalue |
The p-value of the test. |
