One-sample Test for Mean Vector by Srivastava and Du (2008)

Given a multivariate sample \(X\) and hypothesized mean \(\mu_0\), it tests $$H_0 : \mu_x = \mu_0\quad vs\quad H_1 : \mu_x \neq \mu_0$$ using the procedure by Srivastava and Du (2008).

mean1.2008SD(X, mu0 = rep(0, ncol(X)))

Arguments

X

an \((n\times p)\) data matrix where each row is an observation.

mu0

a length-\(p\) mean vector of interest.

Value

a (list) object of S3 class htest containing:

statistic

a test statistic.

p.value

\(p\)-value under \(H_0\).

alternative

alternative hypothesis.

method

name of the test.

data.name

name(s) of provided sample data.
