  • A $2{\times}2$ Cross-over design is widely used in clinical trials for comparison studies of two kinds of drugs or medical treatments. This design has many statistical methods such as Hills-Armitage's (1979) method or Koch's (1972) method. In this paper, we propose a nonparametric test for $2{\times}2$ Cross-over design based on a two-sample test suggested by Baumgartner et al. (1998). In addition, a Monte Carlo simulation study is adapted to compare the power of the proposed methods with those of previous methods.

  • Mack (1981), Skilling and Wolfe (1977, 1978) proposed typical nonparametric method in randomized block design with replications. In this paper, we proposed the procedures based on placement as extension of the two sample placement tests described in Orban and Wolfe (1982) and treatment versus control tests described in Kim (1999). Also Monte Carlo simulation study is adapted to compare power of the proposed procedure with those of previous procedures.

  • In this paper we study the properties of nonparametric tests for testing the null hypothesis of no changes against one sided and two sideds alternatives in scale parameter at unknown point. We first propose two types of nonparametric tests based on linear rank statistics and rank-like statistics, respectively. For these statistics, we drive the asymptotic distributions under the null and contiguous alternatives. The main theoreticla tools used for derivation are the stochastic process representation of the test staistic and the Brownian bridge approximation. We evaluate the Pitman efficiencies of the test for the contiguous alternatives, and also compute empirical power by Monte Carlo simulation.

  • This is primarily an expository paper that presents several nonparametric procedures for testing exponentiality against certain monotonicity properties of the mean residual life function, tests against the trend change in such function attract a great deal of attention of late in reliability analysis. In this note, we present some of the known testing procedures regarding the behavior of mean residual life function. These tests are also compared in terms of asymptotic relative efficiency and empirical power against a few alternatives. The tests based on incomplete data are also briefly discussed.

  • Computer programs for IBM PC/XT/AT or compatibles, are presented for running 9 nonparametric tests. They include sign test, Wilcoxon signed rank test, Mann-Whitney Wilcoxon test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov one sample and two sample tests, Kendall and Spearman rank correlation coefficient tests, and Chi square test for contingency table. Each program is written with BASIC language and is combined into a statistical package, 'NONPARA'. It is easily accessible through the menu programs. The alogorithms on which each test is based, are also explained and 3 examples are given.

  • In this paper we propose nonparametric tests of parallelism against umbrella alternatives of slopes in k-regression lines and investigate the asymptotic properties of the proposed test statistics. For the known peak and unknown peak, we suggest the test statistics and show that, from Monte Carlo study, the proposed test statistics have good empirical powers for heavy tailed distributions than the likelihood ratio tests.

  • In this paper we propose nonparametric tests using optimal weights for umbrella alternatives in a randomized block design. We obtain the optimal weights by maximizing the asymptotic relative efficiency of the proposed test statistics with respect to Mack and Wolf(1981) type test statistic, and investigate asymptotic relative efficiencies of the proposed test statistics using these optimal weights relative to Mack and Wolfe type statistics and linear rank statistic. Throughout simulations for small samples, the proposed test statistic has good powers rather than the other two tests when the block sizes are different.

  • Hypothesis testing for the equality of two distributions were considered. Nonparametric kernel density estimates were used for testing equality of distributions. Cross-validatory choice of bandwidth was used in the kernel density estimation. Sampling distribution of considered test statistic were developed by resampling method, called the bootstrap. Small sample Monte Carlo simulation were conducted. Empirical power of considered tests were compared for variety distributions.

  • Crossover design is often used in clinical trials about chronic diseases like hypertension, asthma and arthritis. In this paper, we suggest nonparametric approaches of Friedman-type rank test based on Bernard-van Elteren test and of aligned method keeping the information of blocks based on the AB/BA/AA/BB crossover design. The simulation results are presented to compare experimental error and power of several methods.
