aziztest (version 0.2.1)

Novel Statistical Test for Aberration Enrichment

Description

Testing for heterogeneous effects in a case-control setting. The aim here to discover an association that is beyond a mean difference between all cases and all controls. Instead, the signal of interest here is present in only a proportion of the cases. This test should be more powerful than a t-test or Wilcoxon test in this heterogeneous setting.
