Today’s overwhelming number of techniques applicable to data analysis makes it extremely difficult to define the most beneficial approach while considering all the significant variables.
The analysis of variance has been studied from several approaches, the most common of which uses a linear model that relates the response to the treatments and blocks. Note that the model is linear in parameters but may be nonlinear across factor levels. Interpretation is easy when data is balanced across factors but much deeper understanding is needed for unbalanced data.
Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is a collection of statistical models and their associated estimation procedures (such as the "variation" among and between groups) used to analyze the differences among means. ANOVA was developed by the statistician Ronald Fisher. ANOVA is based on the law of total variance, where the observed variance in a particular variable is partitioned into components attributable to different sources of variation. In its simplest form, ANOVA provides a statistical test of whether two or more population means are equal, and therefore generalizes the t-test beyond two means. In other words, the ANOVA is used to test the difference between two or more means.Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is an analysis tool used in statistics that splits an observed aggregate variability found inside a data set into two parts: systematic factors and random factors. The systematic factors have a statistical influence on the given data set, while the random factors do not. Analysts use the ANOVA test to determine the influence that independent variables have on the dependent variable in a regression study.
Sir Ronald Fisher pioneered the development of ANOVA for analyzing results of agricultural experiments.1 Today, ANOVA is included in almost every statistical package, which makes it accessible to investigators in all experimental sciences. It is easy to input a data set and run a simple ANOVA, but it is challenging to choose the appropriate ANOVA for different experimental designs, to examine whether data adhere to the modeling assumptions, and to interpret the results correctly. The purpose of this report, together with the next 2 articles in the Statistical Primer for Cardiovascular Research series, is to enhance understanding of ANVOA and to promote its successful use in experimental cardiovascular research. My colleagues and I attempt to accomplish those goals through examples and explanation, while keeping within reason the burden of notation, technical jargon, and mathematical equations.

• Non parametric tests are distribution free methods, which do not rely on assumptions that the data are drawn from a given probability distribution. As such it is the opposite of parametric statistics
• In non- parametric tests we do not assume that a particular distribution is applicable or that a certain value is attached to a parameter of the population.
When to use non parametric test???
1) Sample distribution is unknown.
2) When the population distribution is abnormal
Non-parametric tests focus on order or ranking
1) Data is changed from scores to ranks or signs
2) A parametric test focuses on the mean difference, and equivalent non-parametric test focuses on the difference between medians.
1) Chi – square test
• First formulated by Helmert and then it was developed by Karl Pearson
• It is both parametric and non-parametric test but more of non - parametric test.
• The test involves calculation of a quantity called Chi square.
• Follows specific distribution known as Chi square distribution
• It is used to test the significance of difference between 2 proportions and can be used when there are more than 2 groups to be compared.
Applications
1) Test of proportion
2) Test of association
3) Test of goodness of fit
Criteria for applying Chi- square test
• Groups: More than 2 independent
• Data: Qualitative
• Sample size: Small or Large, random sample
• Distribution: Non-Normal (Distribution free)
• Lowest expected frequency in any cell should be greater than 5
• No group should contain less than 10 items
Example: If there are two groups, one of which has received oral hygiene instructions and the other has not received any instructions and if it is desired to test if the occurrence of new cavities is associated with the instructions.
2) Fischer Exact Test
• Used when one or more of the expected counts in a 2×2 table is small.
• Used to calculate the exact probability of finding the observed numbers by using the fischer exact probability test.
3) Mc Nemar Test
• Used to compare before and after findings in the same individual or to compare findings in a matched analysis (for dichotomous variables).
Example: comparing the attitudes of medical students toward confidence in statistics analysis before and after the intensive statistics course.
4) Sign Test
• Sign test is used to find out the statistical significance of differences in matched pair comparisons.
• Its based on + or – signs of observations in a sample and not on their numerical magnitudes.
• For each subject, subtract the 2nd score from the 1st, and write down the sign of the difference.
It can be used
a. in place of a one-sample t-test
b. in place of a paired t-test or
c. for ordered categorial data where a numerical scale is inappropriate but where it is possible to rank the observations.
5) Wilcoxon signed rank test
• Analogous to paired ‘t’ test
6) Mann Whitney Test
• similar to the student’s t test
7) Spearman’s rank correlation - similar to pearson's correlation.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

Data Centers - Striving Within A Narrow Range - Research Report - MCG - May 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) expects to see demand and the changing evolution of supply, facilitated through institutional investment rotation out of offices and into work from home (“WFH”), while the ever-expanding need for data storage as global internet usage expands, with experts predicting 5.3 billion users by 2023. These market factors will be underpinned by technological changes, such as progressing cloud services and edge sites, allowing the industry to see strong expected annual growth of 13% over the next 4 years.
Whilst competitive headwinds remain, represented through the recent second bankruptcy filing of Sungard, which blames “COVID-19 and other macroeconomic trends including delayed customer spending decisions, insourcing and reductions in IT spending, energy inflation and reduction in demand for certain services”, the industry has seen key adjustments, where MCG believes that engineering cost management and technological innovation will be paramount to success.
MCG reports that the more favorable market conditions expected over the next few years, helped by the winding down of pandemic restrictions and a hybrid working environment will be driving market momentum forward. The continuous injection of capital by alternative investment firms, as well as the growing infrastructural investment from cloud service providers and social media companies, whose revenues are expected to grow over 3.6x larger by value in 2026, will likely help propel center provision and innovation. These factors paint a promising picture for the industry players that offset rising input costs and adapt to new technologies.
According to M Capital Group: “Specifically, the long-term cost-saving opportunities available from the rise of remote managing will likely aid value growth for the industry. Through margin optimization and further availability of capital for reinvestment, strong players will maintain their competitive foothold, while weaker players exit the market to balance supply and demand.”

2. Background
Parametric test Non –parametric test
It is use when the information about the
population parameters is completely
known .
It is use when there is no or few
information available about the
population parameters
It assumes that the data is normally
distributed.
It makes no assumptions about the
distribution of data.
Interval scale or ratio scale Nominal and ordinal scales
It uses mean It uses median
More powerful than non parametric Less powerful
Eg Independent sample T test, paired
sample T test, one way ANOVA can be
use.
Eg Mann-whitney test, Wilcoxon
signed rank test, Kruskal-wallis test
can be used.
8/14/2018 2NON-PARAMETRIC TEST
3. Introduction
• The Wilcoxon signed-rank test is a non-parametric
statistical hypothesis test used to compare two related
samples, matched samples, or repeated measurements on a
single sample to assess whether their population mean ranks
differ (i.e. it is a paired difference test).
• It can be used as an alternative to the paired Student's t-
test, t-test for matched pairs, or the t-test for dependent
samples when the population cannot be assumed to
be normally distributed.
8/14/2018 3NON-PARAMETRIC TEST
4. Assumptions
• Data are paired and come from the same population.
• Each paired is chosen randomly and independently.
• The data are measured on at least an interval scale when, as
is usual, within pair differences are calculated to perform
the test .
8/14/2018 4NON-PARAMETRIC TEST
5. Carrying out Wilcoxon Signed Rank
Test
Case 1:Paired data
• State the null hypothesis - in this case it is that the median
difference, M, is equal to zero.
• Calculate each paired difference, di = xi − yi, where xi, yi
are the pairs of observations.
• Rank the dis, ignoring the signs (i.e. assign rank 1 to the
smallest |di|, rank 2 to the next etc.)
• Label each rank with its sign, according to the sign of di.
• Calculate W+, the sum of the ranks of the positive dis, and
W−, the sum of the ranks of the negative dis. (As a check
the total, W+ + W−, should be equal to n(n+1)/ 2 , where n
is the number of pairs of observations in the sample).
8/14/2018 5NON-PARAMETRIC TEST
6. • Case 2: Dealing with ties
There are two types of tied observations that may arise
when using the Wilcoxon signed rank test:
1. Observations in the sample may be exactly equal to M
(i.e. 0 in the case of paired differences). Ignore such
observations and adjust n accordingly.
2. Two or more observations/differences may be equal. If
so, average the ranks across the tied observations .If
rank 10 and 11 have the same difference than its rank
will be the average 10.5.
8/14/2018 6NON-PARAMETRIC TEST
7. Examples
• Test of hypothesis that
there is no difference
between the perceived
quality of the two
samples A and B. Use
Wilcoxon matched pairs
test at 5% level of
significance. Following
data are given below

NON-PARAMETRIC TEST
8. Answer
• H0 : There is no difference between the perceived
quality of the two samples.
• H1 : There is difference between the perceived quality
of the two samples.
8/14/2018 8NON-PARAMETRIC TEST
10. Since in pair number 8 there is no significant difference
between A and B brand so total sample number is
reduced to 15.
Total W-= [-19.5]= 19.5
Total W+= [+101.5]= 101.5
Since calculated value 19.5 is less than tabled value
(25) of W at 5% level of significance. Hence, we reject
the null hypothesis and concluded that there is
difference between the perceived quality of the two
samples.
