In santaR: Short Asynchronous Time-Series Analysis

Evaluate difference between a group mean curve and a constant model using the comparison of model fit (F-test)

Description

Execute a t-test based on the comparison of improvement of model fit from a single group mean curve to the fit of both a group mean curve and a constant linear model. This statistic identifies within-class differential evolution, and test whether the population average time curve is flat or not. n constant linear model are generated to match the n individual trajetories. The Null distribution is generated by permuting the n group individuals and the n constant trajectories. The real improvement in model fit for the real group membership versus flat trajectories is then compared to the Null distribution of model fit improvement, similarly to santaR_pvalue_fit.
