    Paired T-test

    Basic definition

    The paired t-test is a statistical test that determines whether the means of two sample sets differ significantly.

    Detailed definition

    Given two paired sets X_i and Y_i of n measured values, the paired t-test determines whether they differ from each other in a significant way under the assumptions that the paired differences are independent and identically normally distributed.
To apply the test, let
X^^_i | = | (X_i - X^_)
Y^^_i | = | (Y_i - Y^_), then define t by
t = (X^_ - Y^_)sqrt((n(n - 1))/( sum_(i = 1)^n (X^^_i - Y^^_i)^2)).
