hcfcirc.boot

Bootstrap 2-sample mean test for circular data


Description

Bootstrap 2-sample mean test for circular data.

Usage

hcfcirc.boot(u1, u2, rads = TRUE, B = 999)
lrcirc.boot(u1, u2, rads = TRUE, B = 999)
hclrcirc.boot(u1, u2, rads = TRUE, B = 999)
embedcirc.boot(u1, u2, rads = TRUE, B = 999)
hetcirc.boot(u1, u2, rads = TRUE, B = 999)

Arguments

u1

A numeric vector containing the data of the first sample.

u2

A numeric vector containing the data of the first sample.

rads

If the data are in radians, this should be TRUE and FALSE otherwise.

B

The number of bootstraps to perform.

Details

The high concentration (hcfcirc.boot), the log-likelihood ratio test (lrcirc.boot), high concentration log-likelihood ratio (hclrcirc.boot), embedding approach (embedcirc.boot), or the non equal concentration parameters approach (hetcirc.boot) is used.

Value

A vector including two or three numbers, the test statistic value, the bootstrap p-value of the test and the common concentration parameter kappa based on all the data.
