A rank test for bivariate location and scale problem for elliptically symmetric populations
M. Mountassir, Yves Lepage · Communication in Statistics- Theory and Methods · 1996
A nonparametric rank test for the two-sample location and scale bivariate problem is proposed. The asymptotic distribution of the statistic of the test is derived under the null hypothesis and under a class of contiguous alternatives. The asymptotic relative efficiency is given and a simulation study gives the performance of the test and some competitors.
