Presents a systematic account of the theory of rank order statistics as applied to the problems of general linear models. Offers a unified approach to general multivariate linear models with an emphasis on nonparametrics. Includes an extensive, up-to-date bibliograpy.

Sequential Nonparametrics

by Pranab Kumar Sen

Published 13 October 1981
A thorough text on sequential nonparametrics, utilizing a unified martingale approach in the study of the invariance principles for nonparametric statistics. Contains formulations of sequential tests and estimators such as repeated significance and rank order tests. Shows how sequential confidence regions and asymptotically risk efficient point estimation procedures can be treated in a complete nonparametric set-up. Includes extensive bibliography.
