在阅读How Not to Sort by Average Rating之后,我很好奇是否有人对伯努利参数的Wilson分数置信区间的下限进行了Python实现?

Reddit使用Wilson评分间隔进行评论排名,可以找到解释和python实现here

#Rewritten code from /r2/r2/lib/db/_sorts.pyx

from math import sqrt

def confidence(ups, downs):
    n = ups + downs

    if n == 0:
        return 0

    z = 1.0 #1.44 = 85%, 1.96 = 95%
    phat = float(ups) / n
    return ((phat + z*z/(2*n) - z * sqrt((phat*(1-phat)+z*z/(4*n))/n))/(1+z*z/n))

答案 1 :(得分:18)

我认为这个有一个错误的威尔逊电话,因为如果你有1个向下0,你会得到 NaN ,因为你不能对负值做sqrt

在查看文章How not to sort by average page中的ruby示例时,可以找到正确的一个:

return ((phat + z*z/(2*n) - z * sqrt((phat*(1-phat)+z*z/(4*n))/n))/(1+z*z/n))

要获得没有连续性更正的Wilson CI,您可以在proportion_confint中使用statsmodels.stats.proportion。要使Wilson CI具有连续性校正,您可以使用下面的代码。

# cf. 
# [1] R. G. Newcombe. Two-sided confidence intervals for the single proportion, 1998
# [2] R. G. Newcombe. Interval Estimation for the difference between independent proportions:        comparison of eleven methods, 1998

如果您想直接从置信区域计算z并希望避免安装numpy / scipy,可以使用以下代码片段,

import math

def binconf(p, n, c=0.95):
  '''
  Calculate binomial confidence interval based on the number of positive and
  negative events observed.  Uses Wilson score and approximations to inverse
  of normal cumulative density function.

  Parameters
  ----------
  p: int
      number of positive events observed
  n: int
      number of negative events observed
  c : optional, [0,1]
      confidence percentage. e.g. 0.95 means 95% confident the probability of
      success lies between the 2 returned values

  Returns
  -------
  theta_low  : float
      lower bound on confidence interval
  theta_high : float
      upper bound on confidence interval
  '''
  p, n = float(p), float(n)
  N    = p + n

  if N == 0.0: return (0.0, 1.0)

  p = p / N
  z = normcdfi(1 - 0.5 * (1-c))

  a1 = 1.0 / (1.0 + z * z / N)
  a2 = p + z * z / (2 * N)
  a3 = z * math.sqrt(p * (1-p) / N + z * z / (4 * N * N))

  return (a1 * (a2 - a3), a1 * (a2 + a3))


def erfi(x):
  """Approximation to inverse error function"""
  a  = 0.147  # MAGIC!!!
  a1 = math.log(1 - x * x)
  a2 = (
    2.0 / (math.pi * a)
    + a1 / 2.0
  )

  return (
    sign(x) *
    math.sqrt( math.sqrt(a2 * a2 - a1 / a) - a2 )
  )


def sign(x):
  if x  < 0: return -1
  if x == 0: return  0
  if x  > 0: return  1


def normcdfi(p, mu=0.0, sigma2=1.0):
  """Inverse CDF of normal distribution"""
  if mu == 0.0 and sigma2 == 1.0:
    return math.sqrt(2) * erfi(2 * p - 1)
  else:
    return mu + math.sqrt(sigma2) * normcdfi(p)

答案 4 :(得分:4)

接受的解决方案似乎使用硬编码的z值(最适合性能)。

如果您希望使用动态z值(基于置信区间)直接python等同于the blogpost的ruby公式:

import math

import scipy.stats as st


def ci_lower_bound(pos, n, confidence):
    if n == 0:
        return 0
    z = st.norm.ppf(1 - (1 - confidence) / 2)
    phat = 1.0 * pos / n
    return (phat + z * z / (2 * n) - z * math.sqrt((phat * (1 - phat) + z * z / (4 * n)) / n)) / (1 + z * z / n)
