Followed by classical nonparametric procedures including the sign and Wilcoxon tests. We also briefly discuss density estimation which was introduced in the previous chapter.
Our discussion includes a brief overview of the distribution-free sign test. For the one-sample problem for continuous data, we present the signed-rank Wilcoxon nonparametric procedure and review the parametric t procedure. Also we discuss inference based on bootstrapping (resampling).
Our discussion focuses on the computation of these methods via R. More details of these nonparametric ...
