uM3pool: Pooled central moment estimates - two-sample

In Umoments: Unbiased Central Moment Estimates

Pooled central moment estimates - two-sample

Description

Calculate pooled unbiased estimates of central moments and their powers and products.

Usage

uM3pool(m3, n_x, n_y)

Arguments

m3	naive biased third central moment estimate m_3 = 1/(n_x + n_y) \sum_{i = 1}^{n_x} ((X_i - \bar{X})^3 + \sum_{i = 1}^{n_y} ((Y_i - \bar{Y})^3 for vectors X and Y.
n_x	number of observations in the first group.
n_y	number of observations in the second group.

Value

Pooled estimate of a third central moment.

Examples

nx <- 10
ny <- 8
shp <- 3
smpx <- rgamma(nx, shape = shp) - shp
smpy <- rgamma(ny, shape = shp)
mx <- mean(smpx)
my <- mean(smpy)
m  <- numeric(3)
for (j in 2:3) {
  m[j] <- mean(c((smpx - mx)^j, (smpy - my)^j))
}
