Abstract: Distinguishing between uniform and non-uniform sample distributions is a common problem in directional data analysis; however for many tests, non-uniform distributions exist that fail uniformity rejection. By merging directional statistics with frame theory, we find that probabilistic tight frames yield non-uniform distributions that minimize directional potentials, leading to failure of uniformity rejection for the Bingham test. Finally, we apply our results to model patterns found in granular rod experiments.
