# chiscore

Estimate the joint significance of test statistics derived from linear combination
of chi-squared distributions.

## Install

We recommend installing it via
[conda](http://conda.pydata.org/docs/index.html):

```bash
conda install -c conda-forge chiscore
```

Alternatively, chiscore can also be installed using
[pip](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pip):

```bash
pip install chiscore
```

## Running the tests

After installation, you can test it

```bash
python -c "import chiscore; chiscore.test()"
```

as long as you have [pytest](https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/).

## Usage

### Davies

```python
>>> from chiscore import davies_pvalue
>>> q = 1.5
>>> w = [[0.3, 5.0], [5.0, 1.5]]
>>> davies_pvalue(q, w)
{'p_value': 0.6151796819770086, 'param': {'liu_pval': 0.6151796819770086, 'Is_Converged': 1.0}, 'p_value_resampling': None, 'pval_zero_msg': None}
```

### Liu

Let us approximate

𝑋 = 0.5⋅χ²(1, 1) + 0.4⋅χ²(2, 0.6) + 0.1⋅χ²(1, 0.8),

and evaluate Pr(𝑋 > 2).

```python
>>> from chiscore import liu_sf
>>>
>>> w = [0.5, 0.4, 0.1]
>>> dofs = [1, 2, 1]
>>> deltas = [1, 0.6, 0.8]
>>> (q, dof, delta, _) = liu_sf(2, w, dofs, deltas)
>>> q
0.4577529852208846
>>> dof
3.5556138890755395
>>> delta
0.7491921870025307
```

Therefore, we have

Pr(𝑋 > 2) β‰ˆ Pr(χ²(3.56, 0.75) > π‘‘βΊπœŽβ‚“ + πœ‡β‚“) = 0.458.

### P-value

```python
>>> from chiscore import optimal_davies_pvalue
>>> q = [1.5, 3.0]
>>> mu = -0.5
>>> var = 1.0
>>> kur = 3.0
>>> w = [10.0, 0.2, 0.1, 0.3]
>>> remain_var = 0.5
>>> df = 3.4
>>> trho = [5.1, 0.2]
>>> grid = [0., 0.01]
>>> optimal_davies_pvalue(q, mu, var, kur, w, remain_var, df, trho, grid)
0.966039962464624
```
