A class of location-scale nonparametric tests
Department of Mathematics, Texas Tech University Lubbock
A class of two-sample nonparametric tests for location and scale shift, simultaneously, is proposed. The asymptotic distribution of the proposed class is obtained both under the hypothesis and alternative. Using this result it is shown how the asymptotic relative efficiency of tests in the proposed class can be obtained.
