Some Estimates and Tests Based on the $r$ Smallest Values in a Sample
Let us consider a situation where only the $r$ smallest values of a sample of size $n$ are available. This paper investigates the case where $n$ is large and $r$ is of the form $pn + O(\sqrt {n})$. Properties of some well known non-parametric point estimates, confidence intervals and significance …
