在阅读How Not to Sort by Average Rating 之后，我很好奇是否有人有针对伯努利参数的威尔逊分数置信区间下限的 Python 实现？

Reddit 使用 Wilson 得分区间进行评论排名，解释和 python 实现可以看here
#Rewritten code from /r2/r2/lib/db/_sorts.pyx
from math import sqrt
def confidence(ups, downs):
n = ups + downs
if n == 0:
return 0
z = 1.0 #1.44 = 85%, 1.96 = 95%
phat = float(ups) / n
return ((phat + z*z/(2*n) - z * sqrt((phat*(1-phat)+z*z/(4*n))/n))/(1+z*z/n))
【讨论】：
1.0 = 85% 也是错误的，已经更新了答案...这里有一个值表dummies.com/how-to/content/…
我认为这是一个错误的 wilson 调用，因为如果你有 1 向上 0 向下，你会得到 NaN，因为你不能对负值执行 sqrt。
查看文章How not to sort by average page中的ruby示例时可以找到正确的示例：
return ((phat + z*z/(2*n) - z * sqrt((phat*(1-phat)+z*z/(4*n))/n))/(1+z*z/n))

要获得没有连续性校正的 Wilson CI，您可以在 statsmodels.stats.proportion 中使用 proportion_confint。要获得具有连续性校正的 Wilson CI，您可以使用以下代码。

【讨论】：
公认的解决方案似乎使用硬编码的 z 值（性能最佳）。
如果您想要来自 the blogpost 的 ruby 公式的直接 python 等效项，并且具有动态 z 值（基于置信区间）：
import math
import scipy.stats as st
def ci_lower_bound(pos, n, confidence):
if n == 0:
return 0
z = st.norm.ppf(1 - (1 - confidence) / 2)
phat = 1.0 * pos / n
return (phat + z * z / (2 * n) - z * math.sqrt((phat * (1 - phat) + z * z / (4 * n)) / n)) / (1 + z * z / n)
【讨论】：
如果您想直接从置信区间实际计算 z 并且希望避免安装 numpy/scipy，您可以使用以下 sn-p 代码，
import math
def binconf(p, n, c=0.95):
'''
Calculate binomial confidence interval based on the number of positive and
negative events observed. Uses Wilson score and approximations to inverse
of normal cumulative density function.
Parameters
----------
p: int
number of positive events observed
n: int
number of negative events observed
c : optional, [0,1]
confidence percentage. e.g. 0.95 means 95% confident the probability of
success lies between the 2 returned values
Returns
-------
theta_low : float
lower bound on confidence interval
theta_high : float
upper bound on confidence interval
'''
p, n = float(p), float(n)
N = p + n
if N == 0.0: return (0.0, 1.0)
p = p / N
z = normcdfi(1 - 0.5 * (1-c))
a1 = 1.0 / (1.0 + z * z / N)
a2 = p + z * z / (2 * N)
a3 = z * math.sqrt(p * (1-p) / N + z * z / (4 * N * N))
return (a1 * (a2 - a3), a1 * (a2 + a3))
def erfi(x):
"""Approximation to inverse error function"""
a = 0.147 # MAGIC!!!
a1 = math.log(1 - x * x)
a2 = (
2.0 / (math.pi * a)
+ a1 / 2.0
)
return (
sign(x) *
math.sqrt( math.sqrt(a2 * a2 - a1 / a) - a2 )
)
def sign(x):
if x < 0: return -1
if x == 0: return 0
if x > 0: return 1
def normcdfi(p, mu=0.0, sigma2=1.0):
"""Inverse CDF of normal distribution"""
if mu == 0.0 and sigma2 == 1.0:
return math.sqrt(2) * erfi(2 * p - 1)
else:
return mu + math.sqrt(sigma2) * normcdfi(p)
