Explore nonparametric ways to compare dispersion patterns across multiple groups.
This book offers rank‑order approaches to testing homogeneity of dispersion matrices in multivariate data, focusing on procedures that are robust to outliers and do not rely on normality assumptions.
This edition develops a class of regular functionals and their rank‑based tests, including permutation methods and nonparametric alternatives. It explains how to handle both location and dispersion, discusses theoretical properties, and shows how to apply these tests to real‑world multivariate samples."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces a class of rank order tests for homogeneity of dispersion matrices in multivariate analysis. Most nonparametric tests for multivariate analysis are restricted to location and scale problems, or patterns of association. The author presents both permutationally distribution-free tests assuming the identity of location parameters, and large-sample tests without assuming location parameter identity. They also briefly discuss the problem of testing simultaneously the homogeneity of location parameters as well as dispersion matrices. The tests proposed by the author are extensions of the Chernoff-Savage type of statistics, and the corresponding rank order estimates are used to formulate the tests. The book concludes with a discussion of the asymptotic properties of the tests, including asymptotic normality and asymptotic relative efficiency, making it a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners working in multivariate analysis and nonparametric inference.
