Abstract: | The problem of testing whether there is a change in location in a sequence of random variables that are taken over time was discussed in several papers. In this paper we develop a conservative nonparametric distribution - free confidence bound for the amount of shift and give some Monte Carlo results to show how conservative the bound is. |
