Noncentral Mann-Whitney U distribution, Lehmann alternatives#

class ctx.dist_mann_whitney_u_lehmann(m, n)#

where ctx is fpm, mpm, ipm, dec, gmp or apm.

The distribution of Mann-Whitney’s \(U\) is a discrete (lattice) probability distribution with sample sizes \(m \ge 1\) and \(n \ge 1\) and the support interval \((0, n m))\). See also Wikipedia [1277], R (Statistical System) [554], Murakami and Kamakura [442], Robillard [507], vandeWiel [860] and Zimmermann [1657].

Let \(x1,\ldots,x_m\) and \(y1,\ldots,y_n\) be two sets of measurements, which we denote by \(X\) and \(Y\). The test criterion \(U\) of the Mann-Whitney test is then

\[U = \sum_{i=1}^m \sum_{j=1}^n \text{sgn}(x_i - y_j)\]
