Sign Tests
Upper-Tailed Tests
There is no R function to do a sign test. We have to do it by hand
,
but this is easy. Suppose we want to do an upper-tailed test with null
hypothesis H0 θ = θ0.
In the particular examples we do, we will use θ0 = 0, but we will allow for general θ0 in the code.

Confidence Interval Associated with the Sign Test
Select a k, get a confidence interval.
This prints the interval and its actual confidence level (in percent).
Hodges-Lehmann Estimator Associated with the Sign Test
This is just a long-winded name for the sample median.
Fuzzy Test
There is an R contributed package fuzzyRankTests
that does
the corresponding fuzzy procedures.
do the lower-tailed test, the upper-tailed test, and the two-tailed test, respectively.
Fuzzy Confidence Intervals
The R contributed package fuzzyRankTests
also does
fuzzy confidence intervals.
