Some \(c\)-sample rank tests of homogeneity against ordered alternatives based on U-statistics. (English) Zbl 1117.62044

Summary: For the \(c\)-sample location problem with ordered alternatives we construct some test statistics, all of them are based on U-statistics. Several statistics from the literature are generalized and extended to our problem. In particular, the statistics of J. Xie and C. E. Priebe [J. Stat. Plann. Inference 102, No. 2, 441–466 (2002; Zbl 0989.62027)] are generalized from the two-sample problem. All the corresponding tests are based on different pairwise ranking methods, that of M. L. Puri [Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 18, 51–63 (1965; Zbl 0135.19602)], of P. V. Tryon and T. P. Hettmansperger [Ann. Stat. 1, 1061–1070 (1973; Zbl 0275.62041)], and of H. Büning and W. Kössler [J. Stat. Comput. Simulation 55, No. 4, 337–352 (1996; Zbl 0874.62012)]. The asymptotic power and the asymptotic relative efficiency are derived. Some of these tests are used to construct adaptive tests. A simulation study shows that the asymptotic results can be used for sample sizes as small as \(n_i = 10\).
