Statistical functions for masked arrays (scipy.stats.mstats)ΒΆ

This module contains a large number of statistical functions that can be used with masked arrays.

Most of these functions are similar to those in scipy.stats but might have small differences in the API or in the algorithm used. Since this is a relatively new package, some API changes are still possible.

argstoarray (*args) Constructs a 2D array from a sequence of sequences. Sequences are filled with missing values to match the length of the longest sequence.
betai (a, b, x) Returns the incomplete beta function.
chisquare (f_obs[, f_exp]) Calculates a one-way chi square test.
count_tied_groups (x[, use_missing]) Counts the number of tied values in x, and returns a dictionary (nb of ties: nb of groups).
describe (a[, axis]) Computes several descriptive statistics of the passed array.
f_oneway (*args) Performs a 1-way ANOVA, returning an F-value and probability given any number of groups. From Heiman, pp.394-7.

find_repeats (arr) Find repeats in arr and return a tuple (repeats, repeat_count). Masked values are discarded.
friedmanchisquare (*args) Friedman Chi-Square is a non-parametric, one-way within-subjects ANOVA. This function calculates the Friedman Chi-square test for repeated measures and returns the result, along with the associated probability value.
gmean (a[, axis]) Compute the geometric mean along the specified axis.
hmean (a[, axis]) Calculates the harmonic mean along the specified axis.

kruskalwallis (*args) Compute the Kruskal-Wallis H-test for independent samples

msign (x) Returns the sign of x, or 0 if x is masked.
normaltest (a[, axis]) Tests whether a sample differs from a normal distribution
obrientransform (*args) Computes a transform on input data (any number of columns). Used to test for homogeneity of variance prior to running one-way stats. Each array in *args is one level of a factor. If an F_oneway() run on the transformed data and found significant, variances are unequal. From Maxwell and Delaney, p.112.
pearsonr (x, y) Calculates a Pearson correlation coefficient and the p-value for testing non-correlation.
plotting_positions (data[, alpha, beta]) Returns the plotting positions (or empirical percentile points) for the data.

pointbiserialr (x, y) Calculates a point biserial correlation coefficient and the associated p-value.
rankdata (data[, axis, use_missing]) Returns the rank (also known as order statistics) of each data point along the given axis.

samplevar (data[, axis]) Returns a biased estimate of the variance of the data, as the average of the squared deviations from the mean.
scoreatpercentile (data, per[, limit=(), alphap, ...]) Calculate the score at the given ‘per’ percentile of the sequence a. For example, the score at per=50 is the median.

Parameters ———- a : sequence Input array limits : {(0.1,0.1), tuple of float} optional tuple (lower percentage, upper percentage) to cut on each side of the array, with respect to the number of unmasked data. Noting n the number of unmasked data before trimming, the (n*limits[0])th smallest data and the (n*limits[1])th largest data are masked, and the total number of unmasked data after trimming is n*(1.-sum(limits)) In each case, the value of one limit can be set to None to indicate an open interval. If limits is None, no trimming is performed inclusive : {(True, True) tuple} optional Tuple indicating whether the number of data being masked on each side should be rounded (True) or truncated (False). axis : {None, integer}, optional Axis along which to trim.
