How We Hire Writers

custom writing

All applicants go through a series of tests that check their level of English and knowledge of formatting styles. The applicant is also required to present a sample of writing to the Evaluation Department. If you wish to find out more about the procedure, check out the whole process.

How We Ensure Quality

Our Quality Control Department checks every single order for formatting, style, word usage, and authenticity. This lets us deliver certified assignment assistance that has no Internet rivals.

Hypothesis Testing

#One sided confidence intervals

#For p
library(regclass)
data(“CUSTREACQUIRE”)
summary(CUSTREACQUIRE)

summary(CUSTREACQUIRE$Reacquire)
mean( CUSTREACQUIRE$Reacquire == “Yes” )

#Old reacquire policy got 60% of churned customers. New one is cheaper, and may not be as effective
#Ho: p=0.6 vs. HA: p < 0.6
binom.test(295,500,alternative = “less”, p=0.6)
# 95 percent confidence interval:
# 0.0000000 0.6267122
#60% is still a plausible value for p, retain Ho

#Is the average lifetimevalue 2 larger than lifetime value 1?
#Ho: mu2 = mu1 vs. HA: mu2 > mu1
#Ho: mu2 – mu1 = 0 vs HA: mu2 – mu1 > 0
SUB <- subset(CUSTREACQUIRE,Reacquire==”Yes”)
summary(SUB)
t.test(SUB$Lifetime2,SUB$Lifetime1,paired=TRUE,alternative=”greater”)
# 95 percent confidence interval:
# 110.8438 Inf

#Median Age < 53?
median(CUSTREACQUIRE$Age)
# < alternative wants (-Inf, quantile(,.95) )
# > alternative wants ( quantile(,.05), Inf )
#Ho: median = 53
#HA: median < 53

boot.medians <- c()
for (i in 1:4999) {
boot.sample <- sample( CUSTREACQUIRE$Age, replace=TRUE )
boot.medians[i] <- median(boot.sample)
}
hist(boot.medians)

c(-Inf, quantile(boot.medians,.95) )

#Clustering

set.seed(471); DATA <- data.frame(x=runif(100,30,40),y=runif(100,70,80))
set.seed(472);DATA[1:7,] <- data.frame(x=runif(7,31.1,32.9),y=runif(7,71.1,72.9))
set.seed(473);DATA[21:28,] <- data.frame(x=runif(8,35.1,36.8),y=runif(8,76.0,77.8))
plot(DATA,pch=20,cex=2)

#Is there clustering? Or is there not?

#Step 1
#Ho: distribution of points IS random (=)
#HA: distribution of points IS NOT random (not =)

#Step 2
#Test statistic: the average distance to each point’s 5th nearest neighbor
DISTANCE <- as.matrix( dist( DATA) )
#Get the distance to the 5th nearest neighbor for each point
apply(DISTANCE,2,function(x) sort( x )[6] )
#Get average 5th nearest neighbor distance
mean( apply(DISTANCE,2,function(x) sort( x )[6] ) )

#What is the distribution “under the null” of the test statistic
#i.e. what is the distribution of the average 5th nearest neighbor distance when points
#are randomly placed on this square?
#Simulate this with a Monte Carlo simulation
null.stat <- c()
for ( i in 1:500 ) {
#Place points in the square at random
DATA <- data.frame(x=runif(100,30,40),y=runif(100,70,80))
null.stat[i] <- mean( apply(as.matrix( dist( DATA) ) ,2,function(x) sort( x )[6] ) )
}
hist(null.stat)

#Step 3: get pvalue

mean( null.stat <= 1.29358 )
#p-value is 0.106

#Interpretation of this p-value
#The probability that we would measure an average 5th nearest neighbor distance of 1.29358
#or something smaller (i.e. more evidence from the alternative) when the distribution of points
#is purely random is 10.6%.

#There’s a 10.6% chance of observing our data or data that is even more evidence for the
#alternative (i.e. that there’s clustering) when the points are actually being placed
#at random (i.e. the null is true).

#if p-value < 5% reject Ho, if 5% or bigger, retain Ho
#WE RETAIN HO!
