Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test Class
Definition
Assembly: Numerics.NET (in Numerics.NET.dll) Version: 10.7.0
public sealed class WilcoxonSignedRankTest : OneSampleTest- Inheritance
- Object → HypothesisTest → OneSampleTest<Double> → OneSampleTest → WilcoxonSignedRankTest
Remarks
Use the WilcoxonSignedRankTest class to test whether the median of signed differences is zero. The test removes zero differences, ranks the absolute nonzero differences using average ranks for ties, and computes the positive and negative rank sums.
The reported Statistic is always min(W+, W-), where W+ is the sum of ranks for positive differences and W- is the sum of ranks for negative differences. One-sided p-values are computed from W+, not from min(W+, W-).
Exact p-values are available only when the effective sample size is at most 50 and there are no ties. In Default, tied samples use the normal approximation automatically.
Constructors
| Wilcoxon | Constructs a new Wilcoxon signed-rank test for paired samples. |
| Wilcoxon | Constructs a new Wilcoxon signed-rank test for a single sample against a median. |
Properties
| Distribution |
Gets the probability distribution used in the hypothesis test.
(Inherited from HypothesisTest) |
| Effective | Gets the number of nonzero differences used by the test. |
| Exactness | Gets or sets whether p-values are computed exactly or approximately. |
| Hypothesis |
Gets or sets whether the test is one or two-tailed.
(Inherited from HypothesisTest) |
| Median | Gets the median value tested by this test. |
| Name |
Gets the name of the hypothesis test.
(Overrides HypothesisTest.Name) |
| Negative | Gets the sum of ranks corresponding to negative differences. |
| Positive | Gets the sum of ranks corresponding to positive differences. |
| PValue |
Gets the probability that the test statistic would take on the calculated value under the alternate hypothesis.
(Inherited from HypothesisTest) |
| Sample |
Gets or sets the variable the test is to be applied to.
(Inherited from OneSampleTest<T>) |
| Significance |
Gets the significance level used to test the null hypothesis.

| Statistic |
Gets the value of the test statistic.
(Inherited from HypothesisTest) |
| Tie | Gets the number of observations that belong to tied absolute-difference groups. |
| Use | Gets or sets whether a continuity correction is applied in the normal approximation. |
| Zero | Gets the number of zero differences removed before ranking. |
