摘要: We introduce new rank tests for testing independence. The procedures are sensitive not only grade linear correlation, but also correlations of higher-order polynomials. number polynomials involved is determined by the data. Model selection combined with application score test in selected model. Whereas well-known as Spearman's or Hoeffding's may completely break down alternatives that dependent have low greater power stability. Monte Carlo results clearly show this behavior. Theoretical support obtained proving consistency tests.
