tcftt - Two-Sample Tests for Skewed Data

The classical two-sample t-test works well for the normally distributed data or data with large sample size. The tcfu() and tt() tests implemented in this package provide better type-I-error control with more accurate power when testing the equality of two-sample means for skewed populations having unequal variances. These tests are especially useful when the sample sizes are moderate. The tcfu() uses the Cornish-Fisher expansion to achieve a better approximation to the true percentiles. The tt() provides transformations of the Welch's t-statistic so that the sampling distribution become more symmetric.

highDmean - Testing Two-Sample Mean in High Dimension

Implements the high-dimensional two-sample test proposed by Zhang (2019) <http://hdl.handle.net/2097/40235>. It also implements the test proposed by Srivastava, Katayama, and Kano (2013) <doi:10.1016/j.jmva.2012.08.014>. These tests are particularly suitable to high dimensional data from two populations for which the classical multivariate Hotelling's T-square test fails due to sample sizes smaller than dimensionality. In this case, the ZWL and ZWLm tests proposed by Zhang (2019) <http://hdl.handle.net/2097/40235>, referred to as zwl_test() in this package, provide a reliable and powerful test.
