Bootstrap 2-sample mean test for circular data: Bootstrap 2-sample mean test for circular data

Description

Bootstrap 2-sample mean test for circular data.

Usage

hcfcirc.boot(u1, u2, rads = TRUE, B = 999)
lrcirc.boot(u1, u2, rads = TRUE, B = 999)
embedcirc.boot(u1, u2, rads = TRUE, B = 999)
hetcirc.boot(u1, u2, rads = TRUE, B = 999)

Arguments

u1

A numeric vector containing the data of the first sample.

u2

A numeric vector containing the data of the first sample.

rads

If the data are in radians, this should be TRUE and FALSE otherwise.

B

The number of bootstraps to perform.

Value

A vector including:

test

The value of the test statistic.

p-value

The p-value of the test.

kappa

The concentration parameter based on all the data. If the het.circaov is used this argument is not returned.

Details

The high concentration (hcfcirc.boot), the log-likelihood ratio test (lrcirc.boot) or the non equal concentration parameters approach (hetcirc.boot) is used.
