`scipy.stats.contingency:expected_freq`

source: /scipy/stats/contingency.py:93

Signature

def expected_freq(observed)

Summary

Compute the expected frequencies from a contingency table.

Extended Summary

Given an n-dimensional contingency table of observed frequencies, compute the expected frequencies for the table based on the marginal sums under the assumption that the groups associated with each dimension are independent.

Parameters

observed : array_like: The table of observed frequencies. (While this function can handle a 1-D array, that case is trivial. Generally observed is at least 2-D.)

Returns

expected : ndarray of float64: The expected frequencies, based on the marginal sums of the table. Same shape as observed.

Examples

import numpy as np
from scipy.stats.contingency import expected_freq
observed = np.array([[10, 10, 20],[20, 20, 20]])
