Compute null distribution for a set of metrics

null_distribution(
  metrics,
  background_type,
  level_identifier,
  metric_name = "average_precision",
  n_iterations = 10000,
  random_seed = 42
)

Arguments

metrics: Metrics data frame, containing at least the column "sim_stat_background_n_{background_type}_{level_identifier}".
background_type: Background type. Either "ref" or "non_rep".
level_identifier: Level identifier. Either "i" (Level 1_0) or "g" (Level 2_1).
metric_name: name of metric. Only "average_precision" is currently implemented.
n_iterations: number of iterations for generating the null distribution
random_seed: Random seed (default = 42)

Value

Nulls data frame
