t-test
Last edited: August 8, 2025A t-test is a hypothesis test for statistical significance between two sample means based on t-statistics. Before it can be conducted, it must meet the conditions for inference.
conditions for inference (t-test)
To use t-statistics, you have to meet three conditions just like the conditions for inference used in z-score.
- random sampling
- normal (sample size larger than 30, or if original distribution is confirmed as roughly symmetric about the mean)
- Independence
use a z-statistic to find a p-value
Begin by finding a \(t\) statistic. Remember that:
T^m

constituents
- operator \(T \in \mathcal{L}(V)\)
requirements
- \(T^{m} = T \dots T\)
additional information
\(T^{0}\)
\begin{equation} T^{0} := I \in \mathcal{L}(V) \end{equation}
\(T^{-1}\)
\begin{equation} T^{-m} = (T^{-1})^{m} \end{equation}
if \(T\) is invertable
usual rules of squaring
\begin{equation} \begin{cases} T^{m}T^{n} = T^{m+n} \\ (T^{m})^{n} = T^{mn} \end{cases} \end{equation}
This can be shown by counting the number of times \(T\) is repeated by writing each \(T^{m}\) out.

Write a review about ASR benchmark methods
- REV would be our benchmark
- What corpora we use?
- Has anyone used disordered speech?
- Or really seriously accented speech vis a vi CORALL (how was CORALL sampled?)
- What samples? How do we sample? What are the benchmarks?
- REV would be our benchmark
