术语“霍奇斯二元符号检验”的详细信息

英译术语:

Hodges'bivariate sign test

汉语语境:

霍奇斯方法的缺点是，尽管程序表只有6个状态，但计算机要浪费许多时间沿一串符号来回移位。如果计算机在拿第一个符号与最后一个符号进行比较之后，拿倒数第二个符号与第二个符号进行比较（而不是拿第二个符号与倒数第二个符号进行比较），然后拿第三个符号与倒数第三个符号进行比较，再拿倒数第四个符号与第四个符号进行比较，以此类推，那么它就可以节省时间。

英语语境:

Hodges method shortcoming is that although the schedule only six states, but the computer will waste a lot of time to shift back and forth along a string of symbols. If the computer at the first sign after comparing with the last symbol, and the last but one symbol compared with the second symbol (rather than take the second symbol compared with the last but one symbol), and then take the third symbol compared with the bottom third symbol, and take the fourth from bottom symbols compared with the fourth symbol, and so on, then it can save time.
