Global2 | R Documentation |
The function implements the Global Testing procedure for testing mean differences between two functional populations. Functional data are tested locally and unadjusted and adjusted p-value functions are provided. The unadjusted p-value function controls the point-wise error rate. The adjusted p-value function controls the interval-wise error rate.

Global2
returns an object of class

test |
String vector indicating the type of test performed. In this case equal to |
mu |
Evaluation on a grid of the functional mean difference under the null hypothesis (as entered by the user). |
unadjusted_pval |
Evaluation on a grid of the unadjusted p-value function (it is a constant function according to the global testing procedure). |
adjusted_pval |
Evaluation on a grid of the adjusted p-value function. |
data.eval |
Evaluation on a grid of the functional data. |

Vector of labels indicating the group membership of data.eval |
