Bayesian A/B Test Credible Interval in Python
Simulates A/B test data and computes posterior credible intervals and the probability that variant B outperforms A using Bayesian Beta-Binomial inference.
import numpy as np
from scipy import stats
# Simulated A/B test data
n_A = 1000
n_B = 1000
conversions_A = 120
conversions_B = 140
# Prior: Beta(1, 1) uniform
alpha_prior, beta_prior = 1, 1
# Posterior parameters
alpha_A = alpha_prior + conversions_A
beta_A = beta_prior + n_A - conversions_A
alpha_B = alpha_prior +…Bootstrap Confidence Interval in Python
Estimates a confidence interval for a statistic (like the mean) using bootstrap resampling in pure Python.
import random
def bootstrap_ci(data, statistic, n_bootstraps=1000, ci_level=0.95, seed=42):
random.seed(seed)
n = len(data)
boot_stats = []
for _ in range(n_bootstraps):
sample = [random.choice(data) for _ in range(n)]
boot_stats.append(statistic(sample))
boot_stats.sort()
l…Delta Method for Ratio Metrics in A/B Testing with Python
Computes the confidence interval for the difference between two ratio metrics using the delta method, with mock A/B test data.
import numpy as np
from scipy.stats import norm
def delta_method_ratio_delta(control: np.ndarray, treatment: np.ndarray, confidence: float = 0.95):
"""Estimate confidence interval for ratio metric using delta method.
Args:
control: numerator/denominator pairs from control group (n x 2 array)
…How to Create an Interrupted Time Series Mock in Python
Generate simulated interrupted time series data with a pre/post-intervention trend, level shift, and noise to test segmented regression models.
import numpy as np
# Mock interrupted time series data
np.random.seed(42)
n_pre = 50
n_post = 50
time = np.arange(0, n_pre + n_post)
# Pre-intervention: linear trend + noise
pre_trend = 0.05 * time[:n_pre] + np.random.normal(0, 0.5, n_pre)
# Post-intervention: new slope + level shift + noise
post_trend = 0.05 * tim…How to Perform Intent-to-Treat Analysis in Python
Runs an intent-to-treat analysis on mock A/B test data, comparing outcomes by initial group assignment with a t-test for significance.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
def intent_to_treat_analysis(data):
"""Perform intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis.
ITT compares outcomes based on initial treatment assignment,
regardless of whether participants actually received the treatment.
"""
