double theplu::yat::statistics::tScore::score ( const classifier::Target target,
const utility::VectorBase value 
) const
virtual

Calculates the value of t-score, i.e. the ratio between difference in mean and standard deviation of this difference. $ t = \frac{ m_x - m_y } {s\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_x}+\frac{1}{n_y}}} $ where $ m $ is the mean, $ n $ is the number of data points and $ s^2 = \frac{ \sum_i (x_i-m_x)^2 + \sum_i (y_i-m_y)^2 }{ n_x + n_y - 2 } $

Returns:
t-score. If absolute=true absolute value of t-score is returned

Implements theplu::yat::statistics::Score.

virtual double theplu::yat::statistics::Score::score ( const classifier::Target target,
const classifier::DataLookup1D value 
) const
virtualinherited

Function calculating the score. In absolute mode, also the score using negated class labels is calculated, and the largest of the two scores are calculated.

value is copied to a utility::vector and that operator is called. If speed is important this operator should be implemented in inherited class to avoid copying.

Returns:
score
double theplu::yat::statistics::tScore::score ( const classifier::Target target,
const utility::VectorBase value,
double *  dof 
) const

Calculates the value of t-score, i.e. the ratio between difference in mean and standard deviation of this difference. $ t = \frac{ m_x - m_y } {s\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_x}+\frac{1}{n_y}}} $ where $ m $ is the mean, $ n $ is the number of data points and $ s^2 = \frac{ \sum_i (x_i-m_x)^2 + \sum_i (y_i-m_y)^2 }{ n_x + n_y - 2 } $

Parameters:
targetTarget defining the two groups
valueVector with data points on which calculation is based
dofdouble pointer in which approximation of degrees of freedom is returned: pos.n()+neg.n()-2. See AveragerWeighted.
Returns:
t-score. If absolute=true absolute value of t-score is returned
double theplu::yat::statistics::tScore::score ( const classifier::Target target,
const classifier::DataLookupWeighted1D value,

) const
  Calculates the weighted t-score, i.e. the ratio between
  difference in mean and standard deviation of this
  difference. \form#363@_fakenl where \form#3 is the
  weighted mean, n is the weighted version of number of data
  points \form#258, and

$ s^2 $ is an estimation of the variance $ s^2 = \frac{ \sum_i w_i(x_i-m_x)^2 + \sum_i w_i(y_i-m_y)^2 }{ n_x + n_y - 2 } $. See AveragerWeighted for details.

  \param target Target defining the two groups
  \param value Vector with values/weights on which calculation is based
  @param dof double pointer in which approximation of degrees of
  freedom is returned: pos.n()+neg.n()-2. See AveragerWeighted.

  is returned

const classifier::DataLookup1D weight 
) const
inherited

Function calculating the weighted version of score. In absolute mode, also the score using negated class labels is calculated, and the largest of the two scores are calculated. Absolute mode should be used when two-tailed test is wanted.

value and weight are copied to utility::vector and the corresponding operator is called. If speed is important this operator should be implemented in inherited class to avoid copying.

const classifier::DataLookupWeighted1D value

  Calculates the weighted t-score, i.e. the ratio between
  difference in mean and standard deviation of this
  difference. \form#363@_fakenl where \form#3 is the
  weighted mean, n is the weighted version of number of data
  points \form#258, and

$ s^2 $ is an estimation of the variance $ s^2 = \frac{ \sum_i w_i(x_i-m_x)^2 + \sum_i w_i(y_i-m_y)^2 }{ n_x + n_y - 2 } $. See AveragerWeighted for details.

  @return t-score. If absolute=true absolute value of t-score
  is returned

Reimplemented from theplu::yat::statistics::Score.

double theplu::yat::statistics::tScore::score ( const classifier::Target target,
const utility::VectorBase value,
const utility::VectorBase weight 
) const
virtual

Calculates the weighted t-score, i.e. the ratio between difference in mean and standard deviation of this difference. $ t = \frac{ m_x - m_y }{ \frac{s2}{n_x}+\frac{s2}{n_y}} $ where $ m $ is the weighted mean, n is the weighted version of number of data points and $ s2 $ is an estimation of the variance $ s^2 = \frac{ \sum_i w_i(x_i-m_x)^2 + \sum_i w_i(y_i-m_y)^2 }{ n_x + n_y - 2 } $. See AveragerWeighted for details.

Returns:
t-score if absolute=true absolute value of t-score is returned

Implements theplu::yat::statistics::Score.

double theplu::yat::statistics::tScore::score ( const classifier::Target target,
const utility::VectorBase value,
const utility::VectorBase weight,
double *  dof = 0 
) const

Calculates the weighted t-score, i.e. the ratio between difference in mean and standard deviation of this difference. $ t = \frac{ m_x - m_y }{ \frac{s2}{n_x}+\frac{s2}{n_y}} $ where $ m $ is the weighted mean, n is the weighted version of number of data points and $ s2 $ is an estimation of the variance $ s^2 = \frac{ \sum_i w_i(x_i-m_x)^2 + \sum_i w_i(y_i-m_y)^2 }{ n_x + n_y - 2 } $. See AveragerWeighted for details.

Parameters:
targetTarget defining the two groups
valueVector with data values on which calculation is based
weightVector with weight associated to value
dofdouble pointer in which approximation of degrees of freedom is returned: pos.n()+neg.n()-2. See AveragerWeighted.
Returns:

double theplu::yat::statistics::tScore::score ( const T1 &  pos,
const T2 &  neg,
double *  dof = 0 
) const

Calcultate t-score from Averager like objects. Requirements for T1 and T2 are: double mean(), double n(), double sum_xx_centered()

If dof is not a null pointer it is assigned to number of degrees of freedom.


Member Data Documentation

bool theplu::yat::statistics::Score::absolute_
protectedinherited

true if method is absolute, which means if score is below expected value (by chance) E, score returns E-score+E instead.
