Nominal p-values were determined by comparing a Z-statistic (ratio of the pooled effect size to its standard error for each gene) to a standard normal distribution.
The first statistic (odds ratio) conveys whether mothers of individuals with autism were more likely to report antidepressant use during pregnancy.
Five examinations are carried out in this paper on the specifications of the stochastic frontier production model based on the statistic likelihood ratio (LR) (Table 1).
Three model performance metrics were calculated: Nash Sutcliffe Efficiency, a normalised error index statistic (the ratio of the root mean square error to the standard deviation of observed data) and the percentage bias.
Logistic coefficients, Wald statistic, odds ratio and 95% confidence intervals from each logistic regression analysis are presented in Tables 3, 4, 5 and 6.
PERMANOVA relies on comparing the observed value of a test statistic (F-ratio) against a recalculated test statistic generated from random permutation of the data.
In order to identify clustering of copy number status changes, a scan-statistic likelihood ratio based on the Poisson model was employed [ 39].
Similar to the X-statistic, the likelihood ratio test statistic (see, for example, Wackerly et al., 26) p 517) is approximately χ-distributed and, in addition, has certain asymptotically optimal properties.
Among the methods (Poisson likelihood ratio statistic, Poisson exact statistic), the same normalization method performance is very similar.
The dual test method requires both the likelihood ratio statistic and the weighted statistic to be greater than the unadjusted critical value.
BOOST is computationally efficient and detects statistical significant interactions based on approximated likelihood ratio statistic.
