About

Methods for testing the equality between groups of estimated density functions. The package implements FDET (Fourier-based Density Equality Testing) and MDET (Moment-based Density Equality Testing), two new approaches introduced by the author. Both methods extend an earlier testing approach by Delicado (2007), "Functional k-sample problem when data are density functions" doi:10.1007/s00180-007-0047-y, which is referred to as DET (Density Equality Testing) in this package for clarity. FDET compares groups of densities based on their global shape using Fourier transforms, while MDET tests for differences in distributional moments. All methods are described in Anarat, Krutmann and Schwender (2025), "Testing for Differences in Extrinsic Skin Aging Based on Density Functions" (Submitted).

Install

R (CRAN)Ubuntu (r2u)Fedora (COPR)openSUSE (OBS)

install.packages("denstest", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")

Installs the current CRAN release. Prebuilt binaries on Windows and macOS.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt install -y r-cran-denstest

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

# enable the iucar/cran COPR if it is not already present, then install
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/*iucar*cran*.repo >/dev/null 2>&1 \
  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-denstest

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
  || sudo zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/autoCRAN/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/devel:languages:R:autoCRAN.repo
sudo zypper install -y R-denstest

RPMs auto-built from CRAN on openSUSE OBS (Tumbleweed).
