Title: Nonparametric Multivariate Inference on Shift
Author(s): Yodit Seifu*+ and John Kolassa
Companies: Novartis and Rutgers University
Keywords: shift ; nonparametric ; confidence interval
Abstract:

Consider responses to one of two treatments, measured in multiple strata and in the presence of covariates. We present a nonparametric method for estimating a shift in median response due to treatment, incorporating an adjustment for covariates. Our method uses estimating equations. Using simulation, we evaluate the robustness of these estimates and associated confidence intervals.
