Overview

About

Maintained by Wolfgang RolkeFirst published 2025-07-226 releasesCRAN page ↗

The routine twosample_test() in this package runs the two-sample test using various test statistic for multivariate data. The user can also run several tests and then find a p value adjusted for simultaneous inference. The p values are found via permutation or via the parametric bootstrap. The routine twosample_power() allows the estimation of the power of the tests. The routine run.studies() allows a user to quickly study the power of a new method and how it compares to those included in the package. For details of the methods and references see the included vignettes.
