Order Statistics and Nonparametric Statistics.

Abstract

The research reported falls under three headings: (a) Order Statistics, (b) Nonparametric Statistics, (c) Sequential Inference. (a) the second edition of a research monograph and text Order Statistics was published. Topics investigated include the following: Probability that a fuze will fire; moving order statistics, distribution theory and properties of the selection differential and related statistics; selection through an associated characteristic; Bahadur representation of sample quantiles; robust estimation in the presence of outliers. (b) Properties of bootstrapping procedures were studied. A new approach to the Cramer-Smirnov test was developed. (c) Sequential point estimation of the mean and properties of sequential estimation and testing were investigated. (Author)
