چکیده
rH..il:ribllltlton.-tr'ee two-sample test is proposed tha t is an extension of the Wilcoxon test with arbitrary censoring on the right. The test is conditional on the pattern ~ha.t~TV:&l>ll~l..lll. The null hypothesis is H0 : F1(t) = F2(t) (t ~ T) agai nst either H1 : F1(t) < F 2(t) (t ~ T) or H2 : F1(t) < F2(t) or F1(t) > F2 (t) (t ~ T), '~here .l\,F2 are cumulative distributions (discrete or continuous) of the observations an d 'f is their upper limit. The test is shown to be asym ptotically normal and consistent against one-sided alternatives F1(t) < F2(t) (t ::::; T) and aga inst two-sided alternatives where either

where F1, F2 are cumulative distributions (discrete or continuous) of the observations and Tis their upper limit. The test is shown to be asymptotically normal and consistent against one-sided alternatives F1(t) < F2(t) (t ~ T) and against two-sided alternatives where either F1(t) < F2(t) or F1(t) > F2(t) (t ~ T). The asymptotic efficiency of the test relative to the efficient parametric test w...
متن کاملWeighted Wilcoxon-Type Rank Test for Interval Censored Data
Interval censored (IC) failure time data are often observed in medical follow-up studies and clinical trials where subjects can only be followed periodically, and the failure time can only be known to lie in an interval. In this paper, we propose a weightedWilcoxontype rank test for the problem of comparing two IC samples. Under a very general sampling technique developed by Fay (1999), the mea...
متن کاملOn Mann–Whitney tests for comparing sojourn time distributions when the transition times are right censored
We consider the problem of comparing sojourn time distributions of a transient state in a general multistate system in two samples (groups) when the transition times are right censored. Using the reweighting principle, a two-sample Mann– Whitney type of U -statistic is constructed that compares only the uncensored sojourn times from the two distributions. A second Mann–Whitney type of statistic...
متن کاملOn a goodness-of-fit test for censored data from a location-scale distribution with applications
In this article, we propose a goodness-of-fit test for singly Type II censored samples from a general location-scale distribution with unknown parameters. The test is a generalization to censored samples of that proposed by Michael (1983), which is based on the empirical distribution function and a variance stabilizing transformation. Acceptance regions for the probability-probability and Micha...
متن کاملA Test for Weibull IFR/DFR Alternatives Based on Type-2 with Replacement Censored Samples
This article presents a test based on quadratic form using Type-2 with replacement-censored sample for testing exponentiality against weibull IFR/DFR alternative. The percentile points and powers are simulated. The proposed test is compared with that of Bain and Engelhardt (1986) test. An example based on Type-2 censoring is also discussed.
