AMS 587, Nonparametric Statistics
This course covers the applied nonparametric statistical procedures: one-sample Wilcoxon
tests, two-sample Wilcoxon tests, runs test, Kruskal-Wallis test, KendallÕs tau, SpearmanÕs
rho, Hodges-Lehman estimation, Friedman analysis of variance on ranks. The course
gives the theoretical underpinnings to these procedures, showing how existing techniques
may be extended and new techniques developed. An excursion into the new problems of
multivariate nonparametric inference is made.
