The phrase "a test to assign" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a test that needs to be given or allocated to someone, often in an educational or evaluative context.
Example: "The teacher prepared a test to assign to the students at the end of the week."
Alternatives: "a test to give" or "a test to distribute".
Indicator species analysis finds both dominant and non-dominant species that have high specificity and fidelity to a given class using a permutation test to assign an indicator value and associated p-value to those species (Dufrene and Legendre 1997) and any set of alternative classifications can be compared based on those metrics (Dufrene and Legendre 1997).
With the two possible orders of a given pair, and the occurrence count of each, we use a binomial test to assign a confidence to each pair order, thus providing the probability of a particular order occurring a given number of times by chance.
The chapter describes the use of a randomization test to assign a p value.
GOrilla performs a hypergeometric test to assign a p value to each GO category and then calculates the Benjamini-Hochberg FDR to reflect the number of GO categories assessed.
Therefore, we use a permutation test to assign statistical significance (q-values) to the multiple-species association scores, S t, as we describe below.
It has quickly become apparent that cancers of different organs have very different gene-expression patterns; indeed, this fact led to the development of a novel gene-expression-based molecular diagnostic test to assign a histological origin to metastatic cancers that present as 'cancers of unknown primary' [ 1].
Although it is still theoretically possible to use basic hypothesis testing to assign a probability that a result is not normal, competitive hypotheses cannot be used, as it is not possible to know the mean quantitative result for all possible mutations (unless they have all been tested).
The sequencing error rate is estimated implicitly by maximum likelihood at each position, and a significance level of α = 0.05 is used (without correction for multiple testing) to assign a diploid genotype (homozygote or heterozygote) at each position for each individual (Hohenlohe et al. 2010).
Therefore, for the purpose of this paper, the term diagnostic accuracy will be taken to relate exclusively to the ability of a test to correctly assign genotype irrespective of any clinical implication.
The method can find multiple clusters in a single gene, and uses permutation tests to assign accurate P-values to each cluster.
