RT Generic T1 Recombining dependent data: an Order Statistics A1 Álvarez, Adolfo A1 Peña, Daniel A2 Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. Departamento de Estadística, AB This article discusses the problem of forming groups from previously split data.Algorithms for Cluster Analysis like SAR proposed by Peña, Rodriguez and Tiao(2004), divide the sample into small very homogeneous groups and then recombinethem to form the definitive data configuration. This kind of splitting leads to dependentdata in the sense that the groups are disjoint, so no traditional homogeneity of means orvariances tests can be used.We propose an alternative by using Order Statistics. Studying the distributionand some moments of linear combination of Order Statistics it is possible to recombinedisjoint data groups when they merge into a sample from the same population.
