Intermediate order statistics with applications to nonparametric estimation

Author

Listed:
  • Papadatos, N.

Abstract

A generalization of order statistics, is presented. Using this generalization, nonparametric confidence intervals are constructed for the quantiles of an absolutely continuous distribution. Finally, an application, concerning confidence intervals for the unique median, is given.
