Hypothesis tests with precedence probabilities and precedence-type tests
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Computational Statistics"
DOI: 10.1002/wics.1417
Abstract: Precedence probabilities are important tools in a statistician's toolkit. Precedence probabilities can be defined as the probability of observing single samples from K populations in a particular order. Noting that there are K ! possible orders… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.autcon.2018.08.012
Abstract: Abstract Precedence relationships used in project planning mean for most professionals the traditional Start-to-Start-z (SSz), Finish-to-Start-z (FSz), Finish-to-Finish-z (FFz) and Start-to-Finish-z (SFz) relationships where z stands for the minimal necessary duration between the defined endpoints… read more here.
