GeneralizedEsdTest Class

Represents a Generalized Extreme Studentized Deviate (ESD) test for multiple outliers in a sample.

Definition

Namespace: Extreme.Statistics.Tests
Assembly: Extreme.Numerics (in Extreme.Numerics.dll) Version: 8.1.23
C#
public class GeneralizedEsdTest : OneSampleTest
Inheritance
Object  →  HypothesisTest  →  OneSampleTest<Double>  →  OneSampleTest  →  GeneralizedEsdTest

Remarks

Use the GeneralizedEsdTest class to test whether a sample contains one or more outliers. Unlike the GrubbsTest, which tests for exactly one outlier, the generalized ESD test can test for several outliers. The maximum number of outliers that should be detected is supplied by the user.

The generalized ESD test is unlike other hypothesis tests in that it consists of a collection of tests, one for each number of outliers. The number of outliers to test for must be supplied in the constructor.

Running the test consists of running multiple individual tests for 1 up to the specified number of outliers. If a test is found to be significant, that number is retained, and the results of that test are used as the overall test results.

The GetTest(Int32) method can be used to access the individual test results.

Constructors

GeneralizedEsdTest() Constructs a new Generalized ESD test for multiple outliers.
GeneralizedEsdTest(Vector<Double>, Int32) Constructs a new Generalized ESD test for multiple outliers.
GeneralizedEsdTest(Vector<Double>, Int32, HypothesisType) Constructs a new Generalized ESD test for multiple outliers.
