A Two-Sample Test for Equality of Means in High Dimension
高维均值相等的两样本检验
We develop a test statistic for testing the equality of two population mean vectors in the “large-p-small-n” setting. Such a test must surmount the rank-deficiency of the sample covariance matrix, which breaks down the classic Hotelling T2 test. The proposed procedure, called the generalized component test, avoids full estimation of the covariance matrix by assuming that the p components admit a logical ordering such that the dependence between components is related to their…
