rankSumTest: Implements rank-sum test based on band depth calculation

In julia-wrobel/depthTests: Nonparametric Tests for Images based on Band Depth

Description

This function samples the reference group several times and gets the average p-value of the rank test. we apply the two-sided rank sum test with null hypothesis that data in the test and control groups are independent samples from identical continuous distributions. The test is equivalent to a Mann-Whitney U-test.

Usage

rankSumTest(controlData, testData, size.control, size.test)

Arguments

controlData	Data for control subjects, each column must be a subject
testData	Data for test subjects, each column must be a subject
size.control	Size of experimental group for control data. Choose such that size.control < number of control subjects
size.test	Size of experimental group for test data. Choose such that size.test < number of test subjects
