Jackknife euclidean likelihood-Based inference for spearman's rho / Miguel de Carvalho, Filipe J. Marques
Sumario: We discuss jackknife Euclidean likelihood-based inference methods, with a special focus on the construction of confidence intervals for Spearmans rho. We show that a Wilks theorem holds for jackknife Euclidean likelihood, and based on it we construct confidence intervals for Spearmans rho. In a simulation study we examine the performance of our method, and a fire insurance claims database is used for its illustration
