Sentence examples for statistical nuisance from inspiring English sources
Clustering of individual health within neighbourhoods is far from being just a statistical nuisance; it is a key topic in social epidemiology [ 5, 21- 24].
In prior FSTT literature, small statistically significant differences have almost universally been overemphasized and misinterpreted to reflect sex and ancestry effects when they instead largely encode nuisance statistical noise.
Whereas the other three effects can be intuitively conceptualized, mediated interaction is often considered a nuisance in statistical analysis.
To exclude potential bias due to differences in brain size (Allen et al. 2002; Giedd et al. 2012), all statistical tests included TIV as nuisance covariate.
In particular, one needs to respect if the clustering is part of the causal chain, or if it is simply a nuisance resulting in overestimated statistical confidence.
But with cluster samples come other questions, including whether the clustering is part of the causal chain, or whether it is a nuisance resulting in overestimated statistical confidence.
The main contribution of the paper is to propose a fully statistical methodology for dealing with non-linear nuisance parameters.
Therefore, we opt for a statistical strategy that treats this level of clustering as a nuisance parameter, and thereby estimating the population-averaged effects of the outcomes for subjects sharing the same profile of individual and community-level characteristics.
This statistical test takes into account distribution parameters of each DCT coefficient as nuisance parameters.
Phylogenetics, with its hierarchical branching structure, presents a peculiar realm of statistical analysis, where mistaking noise for signal and integrating over uncertainty about nuisance parameters can lead to systematically biased inferences.
Numerical results show that by estimating those nuisance parameters, the Laplacian model allows the designing of an accurate statistical test which outperforms the WS detector.
