Nonparametric comparison of two histograms.

چکیده
Scholz and Stephens (1987, Journal of the American Statistical Association 82, 918-924) proposed a nonparametric k-sample Anderson-Darling statistic for grouped data. This note demonstrates that a partition-of-chi 2 method may give a more powerful nonparametric test, particularly when alternatives other than location shift are important. A taste-test example provides motivation.

Fuzzy histograms: A Statistical Analysis
Fuzzy histograms are a fuzzy generalization of ordinary crisp histograms. In this paper, fuzzy histograms are analyzed statistically and are compared with other nonparametric density estimators. It turns out that fuzzy histograms can be used to combine a high level of statistical efficiency with a high level of computational efficiency.
متن کاملComparison of weighted and unweighted histograms
Two modifications of the χ2 test for comparing usual (unweighted) and weighted histograms and two weighted histograms are proposed. Numerical examples illustrate an application of the tests for the histograms with different statistics of events. Proposed tests can be used for the comparison of experimental data histograms against simulated data histograms and two simulated data histograms.
متن کاملGray level cooccurrence histograms via learning vector quantization
In this paper, we propose to use learning vector quantization for the efficient partitioning of a cooccurrence space. A simple codebook is trained to map the multidimensional cooccurrence space into a 1-dimensional cooccurrence histogram. In the classification phase a nonparametric log-likelihood statistic is employed for comparing sample and prototype histograms. The advantages of vector quant...
متن کاملSome New Similarity Measures for Histograms
Similarity measures, originally introduced to express the degree of comparison between two fuzzy sets, can be applied in several ways to digital images. In [1–3] we have shown how similarity measures were used for the construction of image quality evaluation measures. In this paper we illustrate how fuzzy similarity measures can be useful for the comparison of histograms of digital images. We w...
متن کاملDosimetric Comparison of 3D Tangential Radiotherapy of Post-Lumpectomy Breast at Two Different Energies
Introduction: Radiation therapy following breast conserving surgery is one of the most common procedures performed in any radiation oncology department. A tangential parallel-opposed pair is almost always the technique of choice for this purpose. This technique is often performed based on 3D treatment planning. The aim of this study was to compare 3D treatment planning for two different energie...
