Python Script for Simulating, Analyzing, and Evaluating Statistical Mirroring-Based Ordinalysis and Other Estimators
Description
This presentation involves simulation and data generation processes, data analysis, and evaluation of classical and proposed methods of ordinal data analysis. All the parameters and metrics used are based on the method methodology presented in the article titled "Statistical Mirroring-based Ordinalysis: A Sensitive, Robust, and Efficient Methodology for Analysis of Ordinal Assessments Data" authored by Kabir Bindawa Abdullahi in 2024. For further details, you can follow the paper's publication submitted to MethodsX Elsevier Publishing. The validation process of ordinal data analysis methods (estimators) has the following specifications: • Simulation process: Monte Carlo simulation. • Data generation distributions: categorical and normal distributions. • Data analysis: - Classical estimator: average ordinal score. - Proposed estimators: Kabirian coefficient of proximity, probability of proximity, probability of deviation. • Evaluation metrics: - Overall average. - Overall median. - Efficiency (statistical absolute meanic deviation). - Sensitivity (entropy). - Normality and Mann-Whitney-U test.
