Evaluates the Confidence Statement for Ordered Population Quantiles.

data |
is a list with all groups to be test. Each element can be a vector with the elements, or a matrix, in which case each row will be considered as a different covariate to be tested. All the elements in the list must have the exact same dimension. |
quantiles |
a vector of elements in [0,1] with length equal to the number of groups. It tells us which quantile will be used for each group. If null, then medians are compared by default. |
ordering |
a matrix containing one permutation of 1:n per row, where n is the number of groups. It tells us which orderings are to be tested. If null, then it is assumed all orderings to be tested. |
verbose |
if TRUE, display results on screen, FALSE otherwise. |
logscale |
if TRUE, return confidence values in log scale. |
The confidence statement is evaluated for the population quantiles consedering: The population median of the group 1 is lower than the population median of the group 2, and this is lower than the population median of the group 3, and so... That is, M1 < M2 < ... < Mk, where Mj is the population median of the group j.
The group j is the j-th vector in the data (a list object).
If the conf.statement.pooled version is used, then each groups is checked against all the others, which are pooled together, so the computation always involves only two groups at a time (the target group and the pooled one).
A list (with class "conf.statement") with components:
call |
command evaluated. |
confidence |
the (log) confidence statement level as a matrix permutations by variables. |
quantiles |
the quantiles of interested for each of the k groups. |
order |
the permutations of groups that were used. |
total.groups |
the total number of groups. |
total.covariates |
the total number of variables on which the confidence was computed. |
run.time |
Total time spent to run it. |
