Paired or Partially Paired Two-sample Tests With Unordered Samples
无序样本的配对或部分配对两样本检验
Abstract In paired two-sample tests for mean equality, it is common to encounter unordered samples in which subject identities are not observed or unobservable, and it is impossible to link the measurements before and after treatment. The absence of subject identities masks the correspondence between the two samples, rendering existing methods inapplicable. In this paper, we propose two novel testing approaches. The first splits one of the two unordered samples into blocks…
