calc_se | R Documentation |
Calculates the sample standard error for the estimator differences between multiple algorithms on a given instance.
calc_se( Xk, dif = "simple", comparisons = "all.vs.all", method = "param", boot.R = 999 )
Xk |
list object where each position contains a vector of observations of algorithm k on a given problem instance. |
dif |
name of the difference for which the SEs are desired. Accepts "perc" (for percent differences) or "simple" (for simple differences) |
comparisons |
standard errors to be calculated. Accepts "all.vs.first"
(in which cases the first object in |
method |
method used to calculate the interval. Accepts "param" (using parametric formulas based on normality of the sampling distribution of the means) or "boot" (for bootstrap). |
boot.R |
(optional) number of bootstrap resamples
(if |
If dif == "perc"
it returns the standard errors for the sample
estimates of pairs
(mu2 - mu1) / mu, where mu1, mu2 are the means of the
populations that generated sample vectors x1, x2, and
If dif == "simple"
it returns the SE for sample estimator of

a list object containing the following items:
Phi.est
- estimated values of the statistic of interest for
each pair of algorithms of interest (all pairs if comparisons == "all.vs.all"
,
or all pairs containing the first algorithm if comparisons == "all.vs.first"
).
