testTransform
computes likelihood ratio tests for particular values of the power parameter
based on powerTransform
objects.

A vector of powers of length equal to the number of variables transformed. |
The function powerTransform
is used to estimate a power
transformation for a univariate or multivariate sample or multiple linear
regression problem, using the method of Box and Cox (1964). It is usual to
round the estimates to nearby convenient values, and this function is use to
compulte a likelihood ratio test for values of the transformation parameter
other than the ml-type estimate.
For one-parameter families of transformations, namely the Box-Cox power family bcPower
and the Yeo-Johnson power family yjPower
, this function computes a test based on twice the difference in the log-likelihood between the maximum likelihood-like estimate and the log-likelihood evaluated at the value of lambda
specified.
For the bcnPower
Box-Cox power with negatives allowed, the test is based on the profile loglikelihood maximizing over the location (or gamma
) parameter(s). Thus, gamma
is treated as a nusiance parameter.
A data frame with one row giving the value of the test statistic, its degrees of freedom, and a p-value. The test is the likelihood ratio test, comparing the value of the log-likelihood at the hypothesized value to the value of the log-likelihood at the maximum likelihood estimate.
