Detecting Early and Late Divergences in Survival Curves Using Nonparametric Effect Measures
Patrick B. Langthaler, Jun Ma, Jonas Beck
Clinical trials often show treatment curves that diverge early and converge later, or vice versa patterns that are poorly captured by the proportional-hazards assumption. We develo…
A new coefficient of separation
Sebastian Fuchs, Carsten Limbach, Patrick B. Langthaler
A coefficient is introduced that quantifies the extent of separation of a random variable relative to a number of variables by skillfully asses…
Combining Stochastic Tendency and Distribution Overlap Towards Improved Nonparametric Effect Measures and Inference
Jonas Beck, Patrick B. Langthaler, Arne C. Bathke
A fundamental functional in nonparametric statistics is the Mann-Whitney functional , which constitutes the basis for the most popular nonparametric procedures. Th…
Quantifying and estimating dependence via sensitivity of conditional distributions
Jonathan Ansari, Patrick B. Langthaler, Sebastian Fuchs +1
Recently established, directed dependence measures for pairs of random variables build upon the natural idea of comparing the conditional distributions of given w…
