Abstract

Some rank tests for comparing r treatments against ordered alternatives are proposed when some of data are randomly cemsored, which are the weighted logrank tests based on pairwise-ranking scheme. The covariances of the proposed test statistics are explicitly obtained from the results of the counting process theory and the test procedures are illustrated by a numerical example. Simulation studies are also performed for comparing with the other well-known tests.
