Linear rank tests with right censored data

SUMMARY Linear rank statistics are developed for tests on regression coefficients with censored data. These statistics arise as score statistics based on the marginal probability of a generalized rank vector. The observed Fisher information provides a variance estimator generally, while in certain special cases a permutation approach to variance estimation is also possible. The
