Beyond confirming a biochemical hypothesis, the discovery has practical implications. Carbenes are often used as "ligands," or support structures, in metal-based catalysts—the chemical ...

Fisher’s basic statistical recipe was simple: start with an initial theory—he called it the “null hypothesis”—then test it against data. In the Rothamsted tea room, Fisher’s null ...

While they vehemently opposed each other, the hypothesis testing method we use currently is a mix between the two, using both Neyman's null and alternative hypotheses and Fisher's p-values. The ...

The most common way to approach this problem is to use statistical hypothesis testing. First, we state the null hypothesis of no statistical difference between the groups and the alternative ...

a Python module that serves as a wrapper to simplify hypothesis testing using the Pingouin statistical library. With Hypolens, you only need to specify which column to group by and which column to ...
