matstat

Erlang statistics module. The current stdlib in OTP is lacking a statistics module. I hope to add one sooner or later, in the meanwhile I will add stuff here.

In other words: the API will be subject to change until I feel it could be fixated.

I have two aspects of this:

  1. A somewhat complete set of functions that can be used as building blocks for functions to query measurements
  2. Sane return values that can be used as arguments directly with other functions

Feature Areas

  • Statistics:
    • frequencies - itemfreq/1
    • histogram - histogram/1,2, histogram_property/1
    • median - cmedian/1
    • mean - tmean/1,2, gmean/1, hmean/1
    • standard error - tsem/1,2
    • attributes - tvar/1,2, tstd/1,2, tmin/1,2, tmax/1,2
    • skewness - skewness/1,2
    • kurtosis - kurtosis/1,2
  • Correlations:
    • Pearson’s product-moment correlation coefficient (Pearson's r) - pearsonsr/1
    • Point biserial correlation coefficient - TODO
    • Spearman’s rank correlation - TODO
    • Kendall rau rank correlation coefficient: tau a, tau b - TODO
  • Regression:
    • Simple - linregress/1
    • Multiple - TODO
    • Polynomial regression - TODO
  • Factorial Analysis:
    • Extraction (PCA and Principal Axis) - TODO
    • Rotation (Varimax, Equimax, Quartimax) - TODO
    • Velicer’s MAP test - TODO
  • Variance Analysis:
    • One-way ANOVA - TODO
  • Tests: F, T, Levene, U-Mannwhitney. - TODO

Naming

  • Drop the leading 't' for all trimmed functions? Makes sense if they are the default ones.
  • Rename limit option 'inf' to 'none'? 'inf' works great for positive limit but we don't want two atoms, i.e 'inf', '-inf'.
  • linregress/1 could get a prettier name.
  • itemfreq/1 could get a prettier name.

Done

Part of continuous stats function set

The continuous stats function set keeps a state for values added which may be queried.

  • matstat:new() -> stats() - Create a new stats state.
  • matstat:new([{'min' | 'max', number()} | 'gmean' | 'hmean']) -> stats() - Create a new stats state.
  • matstat:add([number()] | number(), stats()) -> stats().

The following functions may also query the stats state.

  • Compute the trimmed mean
  • tmean(stats() | [number()]) -> Mean :: float()
  • tmean([number()], {'inf' | L :: number(), 'inf' | U :: number()}) -> Mean :: float()
  • Compute the geometric and harmonic mean
  • gmean(stats() | [number()]) -> GeometricMean :: float()
  • hmean(stats() | [number()]) -> HarmonicMean :: float()
  • Compute the trimmed minimum
  • tmin(stats() | [number()]) -> Minimum :: number()
  • tmin([number()], 'inf' | number()) -> Minimum :: number()
  • Compute the trimmed maximum
    • tmax(stats() | [number()]) -> Maximum :: number()
    • tmax([number()], 'inf' | number()) -> Maximum :: number()
  • Compute the trimmed variance
    • tvar(stats() | [number()]) -> Variance :: float()
    • tvar([number()], {'inf' | number(), 'inf' | number()}) -> Variance :: float()
  • Compute the trimmed sample standard deviation
    • tstd(stats() | [number()]) -> StdDev :: float()
    • tstd([number()], {'inf' | number(), 'inf' | number()}) -> StdDev :: float()
  • Compute the trimmed standard error of the mean
    • tsem(stats() | [number()]) -> StdErr :: float()
    • tsem([number()], {'inf' | number(), 'inf' | number()}) -> StdErr :: float()
  • Compute the moment
    • moment(Moment :: 1..4, stats()) -> Moment :: float()
  • Compute the skewness
    • skewness(stats() | [number()]) -> Skewness :: float()
    • skewness([number()], {'inf' | number(), 'inf' | number()}) -> Skewness :: float()
  • Compute the kurtosis
    • kurtosis(stats() | [number()]) -> Kurtosis :: float()
    • kurtosis([number()], {'inf' | number(), 'inf' | number()}) -> Kurtosis :: float()

Standalone for now

  • cmedian([number()]) -> number() - Returns the computed median value from a list of numbers
  • linregress([{ X :: number(), Y :: number()}) -> {{Slope :: number(), Intercept :: number()}, RSq :: float()} - Calculate a regression line
  • itemfreq([term()]) -> [{term(), integer()}] - Returns a 2D list of item frequencies. Highest frequency first.
  • pearsonr([{number(),number()}) -> float() - Calculates a Pearson correlation coefficient (and the p-value for testing not yet impl.)
  • histogram([number()], Nbins :: integer()) -> [{number(), integer()}] - Separates the range into several bins and returns the number of instances of a in each bin.
    • histogram_new/3, histogram_add/2, histogram_counts/2, histogram_property/1
  • msn/1 -> {Mean :: float(), StdDev :: float()} - calculate mean and sampled standard deviation,
