A Nonparametric Two-Sample Test for Scale Using Linear Combination of Quadratic and Linear Function of Placements
We propose a distribution-free test for the nonparametric two-sample scale problem. We discuss the problem of testing the homogeneity of two...

Test of Homogeneity of Scale Parameters Based on Function of Sample Quasi Ranges
A multi-sample test for homogeneity of scale parameters against simple ordered alternative based on function of sample quasi ranges is proposed for... -
Variability Orders
Most of the classical methods for comparing variability among distributions are based only upon summary statistics such as variance and standard... -
Magnitude Orders
A stochastic order is a partial order that quantifies the concept of one random variable being bigger than (or more variable or more skewed) another... -
A class of nonparametric tests for testing homogeneity of variances against ordered alternatives based on subsample extrema
A class of nonparametric test statistics for several sample scale problem is proposed by considering extrema of subsamples of size c. The proposed...

Univariate Variability Orders
In this chapter we study stochastic orders that compare the “variability” or the “dispersion” of random variables. The most important and common...
