visStatistics:Automated Visualization of Statistical Tests

Visualization of the most powerful statistical hypothesis test. The R package `visStatistics` with its core function visstat() allows to quickly visualise raw data and, based on a decision tree, select the statistical hypothesis test with the highest statistical power between the dependent variable (response) and the independent variable (feature). To compare the means of two groups with sample sizes greater than 100 in both groups, visstat() performs a t.test()(Lumley et al. (2002) <doi:10.1146/annurev.publhealth.23.100901.140546>). Otherwise, when comparing the mean of two or more groups, the test chosen depends on the p-values of the null that the standardised residuals of the regression model are normally distributed as tested by both shapiro.test() and ad.test(): If both p-values are smaller than the error probability 1-conf.level,the non-parametric tests kruskal.test() resp. wilcox.test() are used, otherwise the parametric tests oneway.test() and aov() resp. t.test() are used. For count data, visstat() tests the null hypothesis, that the feature and the response are independent of each other using the chisqu.test() or fisher.test(). The choice of test is based on Cochran's rule Cochran (1954) <doi:10.2307/3001666>). Implemented tests: lm(), t.test(), wilcox.test(), aov(), kruskal.test(), fisher.test(), chisqu.test(). Implemented tests to check the normal distribution of the standardised residuals: shapiro.test() and ad.test(). Implemented post-hoc tests: TukeyHSD() for aov() and pairwise.wilcox.test() for kruskal.test(). All implemented statistical tests are called with their default parameter sets, except for conf.level, which can be adjusted in the visstat() function call. A detailed description of the decision tree and numerous and numerous examples can be found in the visStatistics vignette.

fence:Using Fence Methods for Model Selection

This method is a new class of model selection strategies, for mixed model selection, which includes linear and generalized linear mixed models. The idea involves a procedure to isolate a subgroup of what are known as correct models (of which the optimal model is a member). This is accomplished by constructing a statistical fence, or barrier, to carefully eliminate incorrect models. Once the fence is constructed, the optimal model is selected from among those within the fence according to a criterion which can be made flexible. References: 1. Jiang J., Rao J.S., Gu Z., Nguyen T.
