Smarter hypothesis testing with statistics: How e-values can improve scientific research

June 16, 2025 Phys Org

During his Ph.D. research, mathematician Tyron Lardy worked on a new approach to hypothesis testing. Instead of the traditional p-value, he uses so-called e-values. These turn out to be more flexible—especially when you want to […]
